Boxed Dusk
 
A beginning of an evening was grasped by the room

whose sparse light seeped in from a solitary window.

Lain on the bed, a pencilled in person noted the square

of sunset with its pastel pinks, blues and greens

layered over a charcoal city skyline.

 

Moving their hand against the square

so the light was sieved topmedonlinestore.com through their skin like dust,

they noted how this beginning of an evening

could be anything from a painting to a life.
