Darkness passed by last night

Darkness passed by last night
lost within all the possible worlds
but fair away from any of them

I look at it poor specter
it wanted to say its loneliness
but there were snakes and fire
instead of words into its mouth

It wanted to stay in this shiny place
it wanted to learn about light
how to open your arms to the sun
how to smile and see how to light

it couldn’t do it

it kept walking
through the worlds
shadows streets and people
and disappeared before I could say good bye
