Against the Fall of Night
With Thanks to Arthur C. Clark

"What shall I do or write
Against the fall of night."
A. E. Housman

Against the fall of night--
A night deeper
than the charcoal nebula
dispersed
across the interstellar medium--
light echoes.

Intoning
the splendor of the Lord returned,
light echoes
against the fall of night.
