Metaphors and phantom feet?
The dead moon hung in the west and the long shapes of the night clouds passed before it like phantom feet. What can this mean?

"Phantom" feet would be unattached to a body. The idea is to think of the night clouds in a sky with a dead moon as "feet" walking past that moon. Are they attached to a body? Then they are "phantoms".
