I had no eyes
until I saw the sun set
with a smile percolating
through golden leaves and
into me.
This same evening long ago
taught me how not to worry
of grand shadows huddled
impatiently at every corner
for they too withdraw
into periphery like all else
if you let them follow you
into the darkness.
