Darkened Light by Stewart Stafford
Ephemeral life fading,
As a ground shadow,
The cat in the shade,
The sun's arm draped.
Pose for a photograph,
Thousand-yard stare,
In denial of expiration,
That bodily eviction.
Take a breather inside,
Too drained for more,
Crash and burn out,
Let quietus wash over.
