Some times I find myself in that zone of demolish thought
Caught between entangled nets of confusion, abstract
Between light, shadows and the objects they project
Sometimes it is just ordinary entities, they portray
Like a hand rabbit projected on walls
Sometimes it is the others, more scary and wary
That gives fright on walls in the finest hour of dawn
Like seeing a shape of a man in the middle of the night
Stood in the middle of one's bedding space
Between sleep and wake, resolutions of know
Illusion of thoughts, that sends shivers
Delusion of grungier, on what fright they bare
Some say t' day a' its hills, a' what tomorrow brings
Holds excepts of our anxiety and fear, transformed in shades
It is these that travel through t' winds in shadows on the walls
And appear in our dreams
Shadows on the wall
I just saw a shadow on the wall
Interesting observations... Shadows at night, if you look at them closely, can show your biggest fears or loveliest dreams!
ReplyDeleteA very enjoyable read for the day!! Well done :) Blessings and happy new year, Terri
ReplyDeleteomg i thought i was the only one. Shadows as a child would scare the crap out of me, and even today, i always see the negative side of shadows. guess thats my style of thinking.

Wow! Shadows on the wall, like the Indonesian Wajang dolls, lovely poem.
ReplyDeleteNamaste
one little thing can bring joy or fear to us, it is indeed true :3
ReplyDeleteExcellent words Kodjo. That which frightens us the most tends to be within our minds. It's not in how we see it, but how we view isn't it?
ReplyDeleteDemolish resolutions transformed - seems like that should be a line in a poem n'est-ce pas?
Good one, Kodjo, and I LOVE the bunny trying to make a hand shadow on the wall! so cute!
ReplyDeleteVery well put, Kodjo! Shadows on the wall and in our mind.
ReplyDeleteLove it!
