---Shadows---
Tittering shadows,lengthing behind my back Waving mordant pool,the monster behind me,hidden in black Faceless,reapproached I continue down the sun-soaked Evening path,towards the plates of gold The scarless,stark neverland that lay before me Open like a glittering wound Shadows dare not touch the amber lined trees Or the gilded walk upon which my bare feel tread Unblinking sun,bristling and twisting Falling,a slow star to descend into the depths of space Shadows encrouch,hiding beneath the leaves of the trees The cracks in the ground,behind each blade of grass Moving synchrous with the amnesiac that is the wind Her dauntless fingers,invisible to the naked eye Pushes the shadows,stretcheds the darkness,expands the night It opens,the night,much like a remembering eye catching the light And its expanse of sparkles reminds me of the monster that was Horribly,flat,stalking. How could it be redemmed? Redemmed by blending into the ashen divinity of its breathern And I,watching watching a sunless sky dance Without shadow,without shade,without the need to be monitored By the over-nosey shadow attached to my form And I too,become shapeless ash and rise to the sparkling expanse The scintillating kingdom of the sun and the moon Exploding into flecks of tenebrious-illuminate space of night I become, Im engulfed into the black Ill drift away, like the light on the moonlight terrace And I too become part of the deteriorating light As the stars collide,the skies cry crimson tears And it scars the surface of the perspiring earth. And the whole world be left in the engulfed blackness Until the sun conquers its heavenly perch once again.
