Hasten to Every Step (by Simon Drew)

[The following astonishment catalyst was kindly shared with us by Happy Cow's good friend Simon Drew. When he is not busy taking thorns from lions' paws, Simon can be found jumping to conclusions, crossing the line, evading capture and running the online groups English Stuff and International Monthly Hatstand Day.

Hasten to every step
absorb
likewise - drain
leave nothing
All is clean
Oh come shadow
dirty the footpath
in front of me
texture comes out
rubbing against
the smooth passage
of my feet

"Without light nothing would be visible. Without darkness nothing would be visible."
