I lose
To cross the room
To step up to
The window,
To look out of
The window,
I rose
Up from my chair
To reach the Window,
But,
I saw-
I glanced
Behind me and
I saw, like blood, like
A stain.......
Before I knew,
Like wine, dark
Like a pool,
Spilled on the floor-
My shadow- Red
-strethed out behind
Me-
Red.

Why is my shadow Red?
Why is my shadow Red!
