AS ONCE
WAS NOW (BEFORE)
by Eric
Lee Baker
In your
absence
I am
free
to
quiver in
your
shadows' wake
absorbed
in dance
upon the
blue-white wall.
You are
bigger than I am big
Here,
against this wall,
splashed
in color
black
and white
as once
was now, (before)
Yet in
your presence, so was I,
apart
from lines and lore
searching
for the shades of rhyme -
as once
was now (before)
