Cast On from Wonder Winds by Marmalakes

Don’t leave the night out; it has a taste for shadows too
Ones that fall from bridges down to where darkness is due
Where it’s okay to sneak something, a hidden grin beneath
Wonder winds up its string and wraps wishes with smiling teeth

Ones that cast on rocks and roots
And ones on hand-held twirls
Ones that cast on asphalt paths
And ones that cast on, ones that cast on
Curls, curls

Don’t leave the night out; the sticks still want to speak
Lapping lightly lacking the light for the shallow stream to retreat
Leaving space for laughing eyes, packed hours flicker fast
Lies will not keep this unlit and the shadows soon will come uncast

Ones that cast on rocks and roots
And ones on hand-held twirls
Ones that cast on asphalt paths
And ones that cast on, ones that cast on
Curls, curls

Don’t leave the night out; I like it better anyhow
When a half foolish feeling feels like the best idea somehow
There was a sigh, a doubtless grin; my head was in such a spin
I was so completely in it that I could not keep it in
