The More you Shine, the More Shadows You Cast                                                 

I guess so
Mostly true not always
The more you shine, the more shadows you cast
To shine, to do well, to do brilliantly even
Gives you status, a feeling of well-being, a pat on the back
But others may say ‘What” , “Who”, “Where”, “Why”
“How did you do that”
“So fast, so quietly”
It certainly is not all luck
Fuck, fuck no
Go, go
Shine and don’t worry about any shadow that is cast
It may be their last cast
And not your shadows cast
