Stepping out the back door...

Just by getting enough distance...

he who sleeps a false sleep...

IN THE DARK


friends the dark as much as you
hangs on    hurt of eye
looking for resemblances

my soft hands white face
won't stop shining they
beckon like lights

so some other unsleeping
early riser will find me by them
and tell me where I am

I can provide a list
of the abandoned places I love
and draw the wavy line

I have walked through them
we can follow my own
convenient footprints

one more step and one other more step
as though tracking one of those
who disappeared while still alive
