         Distant Shadows

Memories from not so long ago
Are like distant shadows in sequence
Holding fast the shape of recent reality
But sparse in details of those events

Look, over on the wall not far
The motions of grey flickering on grey
In shapes surreal kaleidoscoping
Unknown in their representative way

Like clouds in night tones they roll by
Indistinct yet mesmerizing
We laugh at the gay respective play
Of phantoms nearby symbolizing

The motions we make to musical beats
Dancing beneath sweltering sheets
