          A great play on words and metaphor as well. You may have to be careful of where you will cast a shadow and how dark it may become. Short but well said.

            💯 Truth. Over you, behind you, around you...and you will be blind, like a deer staring at an on coming 18-wheeler. I will heed the advice offered in the poem, as I have been intent on doing my whole life! Well done, my dear friend. More wisdom from Tobani! 🌹👏

              Fascinating. I know your own body will cast shadows, but didn't realize this. Thank you! Charmingly rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy tinged with a touch of humor.
