Darkness in the Midnight Light
The wind whipped my hair
Back
and
Forth
Back
and
Forth
Thousands of tiny limbs
Dancing
To
and
Fro
The rain stung my eyes
Like tiny
Little
Nettles
The sky wept
Bruised
and
Bleeding
I climbed the sycamore
Bark stripping
As I shimmied upwards
Slowly
Night crept in
On the back of a robin's wing
Silence
and
the sound of crickets
Ensued.
Stars dusted the heavens
Constellations traced patterns
Above mt head
Dancing figures
and
Twirling colors
I fell
From the tree
To the river

When I collided
Darkness ensued
