Left Eating Shadows

Left
left eating shadows,

laughing most hollow

dark of the dungeon

the colourless void


alone in the dark

without earthly light

the darkness is fell

an adequate feast


food for the lonely

a pitcher of void

a whirlwind to reap —

repast of the air —

filled by the empty

hungered in darkness
Right

and sipping the night,

he tastes lack of light

a good snack to chew;

it's "champion stew"


yet flavours of joy

he still will enjoy;

yet starlight still shines

upon which he dines


in dinner for one:

his cup's overrun

he'll spoon up with zeal

so scrumptious a meal

the banquet complete

this soul lies replete
