Nightdark mixed with gravity yet this black sky rises higher than any remembered light. See there—and there? Huge shovelfuls of black thrown up against the heavens like questions. Who buried the sunlight? What is this cup of dark turned earth-side down? God Almighty with his eyes shut? Smoke from a record-breaking burnt sacrifice? Suppose this darkness were all shadow, past and future, shoved into one three-hour space. Suppose—for this one night— a sky made of mystery. Suppose a few million stars sprinkled like clues.
