That Strange Shadow a Forbidden Haibun
Spring night -- an odd attraction to this alley. Dark shadows -- something lurking in that corner. Soft breeze -- a weird paralysis in my legs.
softly breezes blow:
hair fluttering fled, disarrayed
what: distraction
eyes blinking wildly --
stiff deadened toes shivered
body slow --- stiffened
Nothing heard --
within non-sounds: darkness rose
eventide swoons
spring night
moonbeam bright
bumping jumping slithering crawling
