The Celestial Threat

On that solid selfish night
dark threatened to shut down
and bang out

the flamboyant moon resists
tear gassing florescent light
warning the shooting stars to depart

and the flickering star halts
giraffin in a subtle manner
but only the clustered cloud burgles his way to victory

and the night dies smoothly

Your title is good and in keeping with the story
I like the theme
The logic is there, but subtle.

I will definitely get the errors corrected.

Thank you so much.

Geezer, "The logic is there, but subtle".

Do you think there's need for extension?

Geezer

I was just remarking that your logic is there, but not overdone, as it might be if you try to add to it. I think it is fine just the way it is, for logic. ~ Geez.
