Poetry
just lift the edge
if you would like
the shadow’s edge
grasp it gingerly
with the fingertips
slowly
lift and peek beneath
to see what lies under
another world perhaps-
or nothing at all
impossible you say
but not
if there is wonder
imagination
vision
for mystery and life
keep secrets
if no one ever tries
lifting shadows
for where there is shadow
reality
where substance
shadow
attests to what exists
good evidence
not to be denied

You know I feel it important to offer a constructive thought ... so, perhaps I could say that, for me, I would like to see the main theme/images determined and some editing of unnecessary lines.
This would make a highly original poem ... more highly effective.
