THE SHADOW INSIDE ME
Night has driven the shadow
into my own body. It's an inward
robe that stretches its arms
and legs into my limbs, whispers
like silk along my spine,
turns darker and darker until it
finally comes off in me as the color
of sleep, behind whose eyelids
two black flames are flickering.
