to my shadow,
no love
shall I give
so, cling and clutch
as you may
under flicks of day
and all that is
sweet as death
and between us, the silence
in darkness, seize
the sky
and choke all that is lullaby  
wrap me cold
and in darkness, unfold
your wings, on the wall above
but tonight, as I write  
no candles, I’ll light
no battle, no shadow, no love
