Whenever there’s light
we attach
how fun!
you change
as the light
shifts
i can’t
chase you
away
i could turn off the light
but i like you
around
with no voice or smell
no taste or substance
you’re real
an imaginary friend
only
not imaginary
When we meet another
you mingle till the light separates
so social!
People perceive you as an
un-knowable
shady creature
you’re silent
constant
ever-changing
I have so much
to learn from
you.
One day
i’ll be your
shadow
show up
in bright places
and disappear in the dark
Then
what
will you be?
