This is the poem:

The Shadow Voice

My shadow said to me:

what is the matter

Isn't the moon warm

enough for you

why do you need

the blanket of another body

Whose kiss is moss

Around the picnic tables

The bright pink hands held sandwiches

crumbled by distance. Flies crawl

over the sweet instant

You know what is in these blankets

The trees outside are bending with

children shooting guns. Leave

them alone. They are playing

games of their own.

I give water, I give clean crusts

Aren't there enough words

flowing in your veins

to keep you going.

My questionis, what is meant by 'the blanket of another body'

  1. seems like it means that since blankets keep provide warmth and a sense of security 'the blanket of another body would be the warmth and security we get from another human being.

    Really cool poem though
