#153 The Meaning of Night


The man walks
away from him-
self, the woman
hides in her hair.

They ignore each
other. Wherever
they are, neither
is dressed for it.

All around there
are fallen clouds.
There is no moon,
faint light, the man

casts a shadow. The
woman cannot
see it. It is night
inside her hair.
