"Stars and shadows ain't good to see by." Mark Twain, Huckleberry Finn
Whatever that means to you - poetry or prose.

Stars perhaps
light the way
upward
beyond
not a guide
but a mirage
dream apparition
to us here below
that this
is not
all there is
Shadows we have always with us
where we create heat and warmth
the opposite hangs back a cardigan
around our shoulders old tattered
clinging reminding us of darkness
chill that biting nip sting frigidity
