Shadow

I wrote this for my good friend Sarah Blesener

sometimes it creeps up on you like a shadow
or slips in through a crack between
the hard floorboards and door.
As a child you watched as the
tenebrous limbs of shadows
swung high and low across
your golden floor. Straining
your eyes into the night to
stare into the single circular eye
of the moon and be made whole.
