TRIPPING OVER THE DARK

By Stephen Maloney

ree

weary

I dance in my mind

 

                a faint two-step

a simple soft shoe

       

on the corner

       waiting for this

all        to end

 

can I bring you

  a cup of darkness

    from this well

        of my night

 

laughing at traces

                            feint music

tripping

     over the dark
