Nightwalking (title change, edit #3.2 (Todd)

[ellajam]

Downhill is a word that changes based on usage.  As an adjective it is a trochee - she was a great downhill skier.

As an adverb it is an iamb - things are really going downhill.

That being said, the plasticity on the accent is high enough that it would comfortably bow to predominant meter imo.

Thanks, unless there's a chorus of "oh, no you don't" I'll keep downhill and just see what I can do to get rid of which.

perhaps - "a moonbeam's trail unwinds downhill
and slips right through the wooden blind"

Unwinds instead of winds is interesting, I'll have to try it and see I can carry it through. Thanks
