Probing the Shadow
The sun touched upon him in mid-reflection
As he searched for the shade of kind shelter
Up and down he looked from tip to toe
Cast his wandering eyes near and afar
Closed his eyes but he caught a mirage
Illusion or blindfolded reality uncovered
He came upon an uncomfortable truth
Neither outlines no contours only illusions
Darkened the specter of vivid impressions
When an invisible cloud pasted his mind
He realized that only he was his own shadow
