Shadows

Cast by the light of day

Organized, planned, expected.

Tidy circles drawn as shadows grow and shrink.

Cast by the gleam of night

Disorganized, frightening, haunting.

Falling here and there as long creepy figures storm through the night.

It is easy to live through the shadows of the day.

It is the night shadows that frighten me,

The ones that attack in shifty patterns at the most vulnerable of moments.
