A Tale of Two Days

I stare out windows a lot. I notice. I pray. I pray today that today wasn’t some mistake.
“Pray With Me: A Haiku”
Don’t reverse daybreak
The light in our eyes called Hope
Energize our prayers

Solve: A Haiku

Just before sunrise

The firmament feels nearer

‘Tis a mystery….

how to fight

not alright to need
neither ought we pause to breathe
nor dawdle
to this I can’t concede

grasp for ev’ry next brass ring
should we choose to hold out hope
hope for one more decimal place
such mandate was tiring

trade our souls for bragging rights
nevermind the sunrise
harbor disdain in our eyes
instead I chose against the Night

Mess

Posted on by

Do you think back on which days were warm
It was eternally morning
No clock messing with you
11:11am, all the time
Arms overhead
Clear head
Carefree

What’s with all the ice, now, too early to the party
All the shutdowns
All roads some surprise mess
5:55pm, and always grey
Sunrise, where are you
Please rise
Sun

Moment Lovers

Step one, get weird with it. This belongs to you all, after all.

Step two, present yourselves all ways, every day, at the same time.

Step five, step five?! Yes, step five — there’s nothing linear or logical of this.

Step five, show the canvas of man what these years of kinship mean.

Step six, dip your brush in cool, cool water, then choose the color violet. Or orchid, because you are bold, or you want to be.

Step three, make a space in advance, or in the moment, or not at all. The whole Earth was prepared for you.

Step four, never end before you’ve finished, or for forever, whichever comes first. Last.

Step seven, relay your love for The All of them. Take responsibility and fight again tomorrow with the sunrise.
