Last Night
Does it mean anything
that a mockingbird
taunted the stars
his overtones
beading my sleep?

Lovely! Great lines – “taunted the stars” and “beading my sleep.” Doesn’t the mockingbird symbolize innocence?
I really don’t know, but it was eerie how he was calling when it was dark and otherwise silent.
I love that use of “beading”
Love this question and the beautiful words, especially:
taunted the stars
beading my sleep
Wow. And I love that the whole poem is a question.
Such strong imagery!
