Plight of the Shadow

Whole as the blank window
That allows it to slip through
A silhouette appears below
Ghe cord from which it grew.
The moonlight chuckles down in glee
At the eerie sight
Of lovers flailing trysts to be
In the travellng night.
One shadow to a hundred drifts
In glistening mystery
To solve the universe's shifts
In virtual reverie.
The dance goes on, relentless, balks,
Buckles at the shock
Of a headlight beam that suspiciously mocks
The gathering in chalk.
