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.

Hello Miss Ale!
We just arrived from Uruguay more a less an hour ago. It was really fun.
I think that what the poet was transmitting through this poem is how scary and dark death is. Everyone is going to get to that time but when that time is now all around us changes. Peoples faces, peoples humor, peoples actions. It changes you a lot. Every one of us has his or her way to show or transmit this occasions. This poet, Harry Behn wanted to transmit this through a poem. But we can do a writing, we can talk and all this thing are transmitted. When a poet creates a poem he usually doesn't talks directly. He let's your imagination flow.
See you tomorrow

Hi miss ale,
I think this poem is talking about the fear, horror and that when you have it you have to take it off from your live if not you will have it all your live, like the sadness of war.
