Poem - My Shadow

My Shadow

03/July/01 


my shadow there in the night

the jagged edge plain to see

alone in the black of despair

sleep maybe towards dawn

now that fragment of solitude

savoured saved and slayed

reality the perpetrator

the moment the victim

the shadow stumbles and fades

light reality’s mate

dawn delivering the day

darkness and shadow dead
