Summary: This is a re-working of a poem entitled 'Absence', which is on the website...




Day dawns in a prism of light:
Colour piercing eyelids, shattering dreamscapes.

I stumble from slumber, sleep caught in my eye,
And face myself - within, without.

Spectra of possibility,
Myriad reflections, refractions of light.

Absence. My dreams are black and white.
