What is the poet talking about or referring to?
A cold and starry darkness moans
And settles wide and still
Over a jumble of tumbled stones
Dark on a darker hill.
An owl among those shadowy walls,
Gray against gray
Of ruins and brittle weeds, calls
And soundless swoops away.
Rustling over scattered stones
Dancers hover and sway,
Drifting among their own bones
Like the webs of the Milky Way.

Hi ale:
I think the poem is talking about death when the darkness takes you to another world and makes gray and black fight agaist each other, because blackness is all you see when you die, it will be something that Oscar Wilde could include when he wrote"THE CANTERVILLE GHOST" when the ghost and Virginia talk about the garden of death.

Hello Ale. I think that the answer is that in that place there is darkness or sadness. Also all the place is dark.

Ale:
I think the writter is refering to a night with a ghost on a hill. Also it is referring to "THE CANTERVILLE GHOST" when Virginia describes the Garden of Death.
Thank you,
Agus.T!!

Hello Miss Ale!
I think that the poems talks about a ghost and how it governs the night because it talks about darkness and some phrases are the keys to know it is talking about a ghost.
See you,

Ale: I think it talks about a horrible place were there is death and no light. It might be a place were there is abscence of God. Because God is light and love.
