Shadows - Poem for Shadowshimmer
#4 of Free Poetry for Others
This was a poem written for Shadowshimmer based on his request on this journal: http://www.sofurry.com/view/390983
His request was: "Can you write a poem about shadows. Freestyle is fine."
Ask, and you shall receive.
Shadows.
Undermined brother of all living beings.
Natural born defiance of the sun.
Invincible coolant of fur.
Unknowable form.
It was your shadow.
Your shadow that darkened worlds.
Your shadow blocks the light needed to see.
Never thought darkness was so much fun.
Shadows are a lack of light.
Maybe shadows are more of something else.
Shadows rule this world.
So does light.
Who's winning?
Only time will tell.
