Past Midnight

 

-

in a wood in the dark

by the pass not a sound

but the cars and the shift

of the leaves at my feet.

and I write in the dark

and I walk in the dark

and I piss in the dark,

and I stand in the rise of my steam.

Mmm I like this too, has a lovely rhythm to it, and manages to evoke the scene in very few lines.

Is there a reason why you have - at the start and end? If it's deliberate, which I think it must be cos it's you, then it suggests missing lines...something unseen, unsaid.
