MAY 8




DUANE LOCKE



I.
Climbing up to the window,
he saw
the room was empty
except
for the shadows that crisscrossed
without sources.

II.
The shadows
never shut their dark eyes.

III.
The shadows scream.

IV.
A shadow stumbles.

V.
The men with arrows
stand by the ladder
propped on the window.
The bowmen have no breath.
Their chests never move.
Their mothers stand by
and ring bells.
