Daver Austin Poet Free verse

The Other

THE OTHER

Word after word goes searching
And  at times      usually quiet times      
Some incomplete sentence will shed light

This is but a shadow sought from deep within
So weakly surfaced as sun has little presence
A teaser      persistent      on fire!

Oh I am with me      with me
Am the majority of life
Then there is this other

Dave Austin
