In the Shadows... / by KERES

And into the shadows

I'll run and hide

Destined always

To have none by my side

 

And there in the shadows

I'll sit and wait

And draw lines in the dirt

Narrow and straight

 

And immersed in the shadows

Those straight narrow lines

Will jump up and take form

And dance to my rhymes

 

And there in the shadows

We'll live together, alone

Swaying in the dark

To rhymes we intone
