((Silhouette)) Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

((Silhouette))

Rating: 5.0


Mans' shadow expresses
a reflection of movements
by the one who stands
against the sun light
when it starts to sit.

It implies the existence
of the physical frame
and stature of man;
an aura of freedom...

As long as
the light brightens the day
and life continues to exist
the shadow mimics
the intentions of man.

'the shadow mimics the intentions of man'-this opens up exciting possibilities-may be -the persistent irony behind human actions -as in a pantomime full of exaggerated representations etc.
