Ceinwen E. Cariad Haydon
i risk all you less so
you stand secure hide in shaded arches
your outline muted by shadows
i stand alight exposed
in sunshine
between us
on listing ground
squared darkness
maybe shallow sand pit
maybe abyss
you dare me
jump over
*[ekphrastic poem prompted by Georgio de Chirico’s "Scene 1: The Enigma of the Hour"]
