in fact this poem captures the feeling of a moment very well, in a
sparse style that I used to use in my poetry. one of my first poems
that I wrote consciously as anything but fun or an exercise (all poems
are both, but not solely) touched on a similar moment:

Night held lanterns
aloft in the fog

combing the streets
for elusive crows

who giggled and hid
with the ravens
