The Pier
The shadows on the river deceive the
carefree.
The muddy bottom
disappears
into twilight beneath a crescent moon.
Down
into cold waters a nightmare turns
from fallow to full.

I like your imagery ZZ; it’s one of the things I enjoy so much about poetry, the little snapshot lingering in your brain afterwards.
