Owls are hooting
The stars look pale yellow
like they are invisible
When everyone is asleep
thousands of animals hunt
In the north sky the moon
is bright white
There’s a sweet smell coming
from the trees
The night goes by very fast
like butter slipping out of your hands
until the sun comes up

The owl looks like it
is scared.
The man looks like he is praying.
The man doesn’t know
that there’s an owl behind him.
The owl has spooked eyes;
his tail is still, and his eyes
are round.
The man’s legs are long but his
feet are short.
The man looks like he is
a serious man.
His eyes are closed.
He has a cape on.
The owl is hiding.
I imagine this to be a church
with a purple background.
