The Matter of Not

creates a margin as she walks
the stairs each morning, a fall then rise,
only to fall again

the space
holds the power,
her might of mind pressing on,
alone

it is the messenger of night,
leaving its touch
grasping at straws,
only
the short one is left
to mix the grayness into
what was a colorless day

anticipation is lacking,
hopefulness gone
only the matter of not
is in the wait
