Following wherever I go; I'm tethered to a shaded form, with its fluid, ebony flow. Following wherever I go I get mirrored by my shadow; something that's neither cold nor warm. Following wherever I go; I'm tethered to a shaded form. Following wherever I go, I get mirrored by my shadow with its fluid, ebony flow. I'm tethered to a shaded form, something that's neither cold nor warm, and yet, such shadows are the norm.

Very interesting form, I like the repeating lines and rhyme scheme. Reminds me of one of my first poems I can't escape my shadow.

Hello Emile, Yes the shadow is the norm. On a bright sunny day, the sun shines on the wall. There is a post there on the wall. Hanging on the post are two hats. It looks like a male visitor come. the sun shows the shape of a male. He stays a while then leaves. My friend. enjoy your day. /Darlene\
