SHADOWS ARE ON THE AIR

Don't you love
shadow?
I walk
toward the moon
it walks behind
I walk
away
it walks ahead
it mimics
the most
intimate minutiae
of me
like my right hand
swings straight back
in full fling
while my left
holds itself still
in a cup.
On a surfboard
such paddling
would bring me
a-round.

I love this mixing of imagery! Shadows and surfing, moonlight and paddling. Moonlight does feel like being underwater, doesn't it?
