the_poet_cannot_hide Dafremen R. Dafremen Mottled sunlight flits from nest to shadow While the sunset winding down Betrays with sweeping, neon lines The passing record of the day A rippled race of heather runners Joins the wind at play The cloud herds huddle In final trickled golden waves. Capturing a moment takes a solemn half-reflection In that twinkling the moment fades away What remains of anything That the human heart retains Is but the vapor of its breath Left on our memories Man hides from this shadow Man runs from this dream Man passes through each wisp of these reflections Man tries to make some sense Of the events that life presents Then leaves each behind to die Or so it seems. Still, you understand The poet cannot hide. 030729 ... Jeffrey the Poet what? not even here? 030730 ... Dafremen Bo0!
