Silhouettes

by Lorenzo A. Fernandez Jr.
Silhouettes instead of shadows,
countenance instead of face,
immaterial, trivial,
alternative, nemesis,
eternal, evilness,
nothingness for me, for you—
these words hang in the air through
the years like seedless manna
sprayed by empty floating bards.
Maybe I’m a hungry poet
but I won’t bite.
Let others and the author know if you liked it

Liked it alot?
