SIGHT (2005)

This is the time of night when

dusk begins to envelope the earth
and light -- with the landscape -- fades to grey.  

Seeing, at this point, is 
feeling a protrusion of rock under my left foot, 
hearing a voice echo in the dining hall above me, 
the inflection a lolling melody of human interaction, or

discerning shades of difference between the ash colored dirt, 
the silver trees, a dark doorway, my pen and the page.
