Shadow Measures



That hour 

where the day

 turns quiet

 and thin

 at the edge

 of the frame


where I stand

 wondering

 if the work

 I’ve laid is enough

 or just time spent


train 

write

 work

 race

 love


How many winters

 do I carry

 before the light

 fades out

 and leaves me

 at dusk

 again asking

where the sun 

went


I measure

 the shadow 

from the curb

and pick 

myself

 up

 and 

move 

on
