Shadow being...

sometimes the shadow seen
from the corner of my eye
disappears
as soon as i recognize
its presence

and everything
in the world
becomes crystal clear
for nothing
is what it seems
or pretends to be

being accompanied
by no one
is not outweighed
by the reality
everyone is near
just sleeping

and a figment
in my dream’s imagination
gone
before I know it’s there

The spider looks like it has a somewhat evil face on its ... belly? Back? Perfect for Hallowe'en!

Wonderful line of images and the poem I very much enjoyed.
I see things out of the corners of my eyes often~

Hehe, Shelly - I see the face, too!

Thanks, Tammie Lee! My peripheral vision is acute, too!
