Midnight calls around again
Curtains undrawn rooftops
Bathed in darkness yet
Somehow alight
I turn, toss
Lie perfectly still
But the light of darkness
Does not fade
There is no absence
Nor calling
Only opposites, attracting
I see nothing
I feel nothing
I make nothing
Not even sleep
Ochre Idyls
Poems, Haiku/Tanka, Short Fictions
