Steps In the Night
I took a walk last night
among tall lamp posts
studded stars in the heavens
flashlight radiation from
passing cars
a walk last night
pavement slamming
echoing against
silent homes and allies
a walk last night
old friends
old loves
seashore swept silently away
forbidden ground exposed
caves of childhood long
forgotten
walking in the night
Insomnia, Me
and no one else
streets empty, lonely
the town a reflection
I took a walk at night
