From the shadow

(For a woman, the shadow of a man is better than the shadow of a wall...Muslim proverb)

From the shadow you come back to I

hot ligsht like your face

some secret desert stone burning on the moon,

maybe such a great stone building, wall< /p>

Inland or wave-weathered stones,

when midnight itself may reveal clouds

roll away from the face of the moon also

and show double Reflecting the light of the distant

sun. This is a glimpse of what I saw

Your smile some nights, we work on it

On erratic broadband cables,

Intermittent from satellite Signal.

But from the shadow of my later life

You tell yourself I am embarrassed

challeging my thoughts

You The brightness of the shadows behind the eyes;

Accepting the towering darkness

The shape of the apartment building my face

Turn to you and light the sun's last

p>

Flashing. Then you let the darkness

Get off my first kiss, the plump

your accepting lips.
