hidebehind.

by Andrew S Adams

as i open my eyes and these pillows
are concrete, this bed is a sinkhole.
the sun is shining through the window, but
it is one of those days where it shines in that
silver silence; the kind where it is not by choice
but by force that it makes it through the clouds at all-
it shines because it must, and that is about as much as
i can ask from it, because i'm not putting forth much
effort myself; i'd just as soon stay in the confines of this
bed until this coward sun shows its face-

however, i can't blame him for
what he's doing,
just as he can
not blame me.

Andrew, this is terrific! Your poetry is growing on me. I especially like the fact that you wrote about the sun in relation to moods. Great work!
