without the judgement of shadowsA Poem by William James McPheemy pace is slow, though not
so much as to imply i've
doubts.
i see the world differently... as
though every breath is
an opportunity... instead
of a caged requirement.
(a reason to live rather than
a forced raison d'etre.)
from above, the clouds
match my pace, the
wind demonstrating its
approval...
and the sun warms my
face, casting my shadow
behind me so that i may
walk away without seeing
it... without feeling it
judge me...
(with accusations
of desertion and failure.)
i do not look back to see
it... nor the house... nor
the wife who sits upon our
doorstep crying in her hands.
