Shadow,
walk up my back;
tell with whisper tones
how not to run away.
Darker half,
take up my smile
imperatively silenced;
teach with intrepid tongues
to speak again.
2 dimensional ego,
Pull me behind your churching feet;
confess with purified penance
why love takes silver-medal.
Silent twin,
trademark my emotions;
patent our flowered Harem of Angels;
hire whichever unemployed god
these empty pennies might afford.
2 dimensional ego,
tuck in my dreams;
speak in fairy-tale futures
how bogeymen of today
are groomsmen tomorrow.
