Darker

Darker than tar, fall

Leaves and trunk, zebra akin

Rows of bowing trees

Paralleling each other in the midst

Shades of green

Mingling with purple and pink

Hoisted in the air by the fierce brown pillar

Yet dark all of them when they fall

Dissecting the bars of shadows

Falls mine, as I stand

That has changed with the suns and moons

Yet I stand unmoved

Waiting alone, you thought

Was perhaps simple

And see what I write

About shadows and life and zebras

I am standing, waiting

Where you left me

Come back,

Cos darker than shadows, fall I.
