“long‑shadow hour”

The day loosens its hold,

and light thins to a hush.

Shadows lengthen

             —slow, 

                        deliberate—

as if time itself were stretching,

testing the edge of Evening.

In that widening dusk,

every shape grows older,

every silence deepens,

and the world leans softly

toward the coming dark.
