Fear
by Charles Simic
Fear passes from man to man Unknowing, As one leaf passes its shudder To another.
All at once the whole tree is trembling, And there is no sign of the wind.

The Light Admittedly, yours is an odd Sort of work, galactic traveler. I watched you early this morning Get on your knees by my bed To help a pair of my old shoes Find their way out of the dark.
