Exploratory Illumination

cirque
such shadow bleak
the pale cast
the dancer flight
in torch arc chase

truths leap out
and subtle
dissolution
blend
slippery like
dark sea eels

whispers of ghosts
like vellum dreams

Editing stage: 
Editing - rough draft

Esker's picture

Used hurricane Lanterns before
battery torch lamps
candles
Now LED

searching in the dark
our focus of our minds
sometimes shows just
the focus

that spotlight forever changing
never consuming all the
unknowns
just showing what takes us
time for a pause
the discovered revelations
in the trick of light
