Metaphor
Mystic

“Every shadow holds a light.”

I am Them

I look at the trees
shaking at the clouds
while beneath,
rabbits and foxes
play hide-and-go-seek
and soaring ravens
scream hidden omens
as lazy minnows in the shallows
kiss the surface
making gentle circles
and I am them,
just dust clumped together
with the light of
a billion stars
peering out
