I Dream Not Like A Fugitive, Leaving The Light On In The Poem

seeming candlelit at times
a cuticle moon slips down
even a fragment of window

somehow the shadows flame out
you don't ask how
into silver-pointed dawn.

you'll stand near an open window
letting in as if it were the sun,
the wind, the vast sprinkling of stars...
