Redirected Shadows
Her tenebrous construction glides shamelessly
across the felled dead leaves
that lend their dew to deepen the redness of her dress;
Invisible beneath the clouded starlight
she ties herself to the forest floor,
with roots and poison ivy,
so to reunite with some greener soul.
Lying in the darkness, she ignites;
The redirected shadows tremble, but cannot flee,
for they too are tied by roots and vines.
Flesh, like cloth, burns and casts an enchanted light
before its ashen flakes disperse,
as if a part of the disentangled umbrage.
Her tenebrous construction glides shamelessly
across the felled dead leaves
that lend their dew to deepen the redness of her dress;
Invisible beneath the clouded starlight
she ties herself to the forest floor,
with roots and poison ivy,
so to reunite with some greener soul.
Lying in the darkness, she ignites;
The redirected shadows tremble, but cannot flee,
for they too are tied by roots and vines.
Flesh, like cloth, burns and casts an enchanted light
before its ashen flakes disperse,
as if a part of the disentangled umbrage.
