Facing the Shadow

Leaning against this wall
With my back to the light
In the kitchen I am filled
With pangs of no particular reason.

My hand moves to the
Beat of a blues tune from
My portable stereo and somehow
The chocolate in my milk gets stirred.

My silhoette glares back at me,
As I rehearse this verse--
My breakfast is getting cold...
Somehow it all makes sense.

10.6.1989
