CREEPING UP ON SHADOWS

concrete eyes -sinking before me as i swim to some guarded shore-left alone to walk from wall to wall-absurd fool chained against the past
lips moving jagged wire stretching between the words -
a piece of a forgotten day floats past in a stolen cloud 
whisky drinking leather lady - sliced in loves nervous embrace
head to head floor to floor hip to hip -this secret tide you crush in silence
40 years in writing - a million years in fear
i whisper some great love song to the chain of frozen mirrors 
outside the darkness - creeps into the light
so my day is forever night
