*****
Wicked, wicked boy
Shadowless forms know no sunlight
no reflection, no silhouette
When asked for song, they sing nocturnes
by lamplight, chilling night fair
Hurried along by the master
crimson sunrise, morning rain
Quickening steps hold the darkness
the door stoop, then down the stairs
Into your box, Doppelganger
hide from daylight, and the rays
I’ll leave there until midnight
then on our flight, into thin air

Yes! I can see these monstrous, insubstantial forms fading into the daylight as they rush to the safety of midnight darkness. You have a wonderful way of painting with words, so that your written work translates into visual imagery. This is a gift few people possess.
