“Strike the Sky” / Memorable Fancies #4009

[“the sky goes out / if you should fail” – William Carlos Williams]

You watched the sky fall,

edges first then dome

like a circus tent, season over,

time to winter

where it’s warm.

But the Owner promised

no new sky, no new show,

thanking us now for our labor,

though customers were few.

Yes, we were dedicated 

to this, our temporary sky.
