The Shadow

Between the idea
And the reality
Between the motion
And the act
Falls the shadow

Between the conception
And the creation
Beween the emotion
And the response
Falls the Shadow

Between the desire
And the spasm
Between the potency
And the existence
Between the essense
And the descent
Falls the Shadow

An excerpt I love, by T S Elliot

Thanks for asking!

(I refuse to acknowledge that it MIGHTA been that extra 'chaser' that has it subsiding! LOL)

Much, much better!

(I found the whole piece, btw...onward to picking it apart! LOL)
