.
the city hosts them all
in the depths
busy – between the tall dark handsome – institutions
they climb to find the desk with their name
becoming so successful
at hiding
their shadows.
.
like an addict
they hide it
from each other
mostly from themselves
never truly successful
at disobeying its demands
all obsessive compulsives
now in socially acceptable ways
.
some brave souls
walk their shadows in the park
where the bright sun mocks
but feels warm somewhat
sensing moments of comfort
when they visit her
.
for this is where she dances
unafraid of hers
she paints her shadow
in bright colours
and speaks to it
like a friend
unafraid
they used to think her crazy
now she offers to paint
their shadows also
one day they will
