'Clouds' by Tim Black
Wild and Alone, Part 2

I dreamed I was living alone.
The desert was
well-prepared.  The sky was
scratch-proof.
I looked up to my neighbors,
the ones who refuse
the offer.  I went outside only
to speak your name.
It's been years since this dream
had any significance.
I am not alone.  In the mirror are
two men, myself
and the shadow, inky and serene.
