the socker lawn in the evening light
dark figures dancing an unsteady scheme
the nite barking
teeth showing
black in the shadows i want to be
me on the watch
dancing through Port Maria
through Port Royal
through Town, the Ward Theatre
through Westmoreland—the night
dancing with all
and none
watching my feet
and
wishing me back in the shadow.
Marc Ohrem-Leclef, Westmoreland, Jamaica (WI) 1997
