Every dog on the street is howling
Crickets getting louder in chirping
Lining up nearby, a murder of crows
Instead of sunshine, temperature lows
Plenty of people, gathering together
Setting up cameras
Even Sister Heather.

"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."

Lining up nearby - A murder of crows. I guess if crows watch the eclipse. Nicely Done - Even the frogs and dogs watch it too, I never thought of it like that.
I like how this one focuses on the people and animals watching the event, as opposed to the eclipse itself. It makes the entry a bit unique! "Instead of sunshine, temperature lows" is a line that I liked too:)
Oooo, this was a fantastic take on the challenge! Loved your Acrostic!
