For My Shadow

we dressed for visibility armed with answers we had no questions for you the only one who knows me who goes away when the lights go out and disappears at noon O! how you are ahead of me sometimes... So thin the thing between us what we've always hoped for and what we've always been. pealing back the landscaped features sets you apart but we are getting closer every day staring at it unfolding the looming emptiness before me My shadow o abyss opening up o, abyss, abyss! Big Sur 12/2011
