Looking for Light in Siena: a Murder of Shadows

I feel it is necessary to explain the title of this collection, taken from a song by Tom Waits: Alice.

As a group of chickens is called a peep, a group of ducks a paddling, a convocation of eagles,  a murmuration of starlings, a wisdom of owls and  a group of crows is called a murder of crows.

My title, therefore, refers to a group of dark shadows: a murder of Shadows.
