The dark shadow an 
Air-mass wealth against the 
Night forever upon us with
Thee color no longer around.

when
you look
through
the
rose windows of
my soul
you

in

When sunlight shudders down,
Can make the horns of a devil
Look like the sporks of a crown.

More than once I beckoned
More than once I tried
To cower down beneath you
My shadow, my pride.

Twilight makes a sorrowed ground
In her dark is where I'm found
Here I be his final shadow
Growing but dying this I know

Yaldabaoth embellished in his shadows

Caliginous eyes
Fearsome face of sickly white
Lion-headed snake
Embellished in his shadows  
With flaming orange beneath

Chauvinist

The right to freedom
Casts but a shadow of doubt
For the luckiest
Can not see it or hear it
And there appears, chauvinist

Naked

To relieve
the pressure
on my brain
I took my cloak
from the shadow
for the moon
had cast me
in an indifferent
light.

Shadows

Cold gray-sky morning
The sun remains cloud hidden
An extended dawn
A shadow among shadows
I walk softly through the house

Agent Orange Eclipse

Agent Orange
Tinging lush, green foliage
Breath-taking shadow
Swallows mercurial moon
Invisible orb hovers

The Highest Treetop

the highest treetop--

is mirrored through the clear eyes

of a small firefly
