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

The logic is there, but subtle.

It seems that the days and hours that people
are available for chatroom are staggered and
not a good match for most everyone. How about
if everyone just shows up at the door, whenever
they have a few free minutes?

Thank you Geezer!
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?

No...
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.
