Daybreak

Everything flows: Sight is space sucking in light
My stale eyes convalesce. I eat the flare on my

Windowpane without second thought and watch
The dust crash upon the wall. Spasmodic melt

Down. It disappears in two seconds and I begin
To breathe. What day is it today? The roosters

Outside are getting bored. My reflection wavers.
I’ve been here a million times already but still

I cannot connect the dots that are running from
My forehead to the door; there are too many of

Them hovering in this blank interlude. Shadows
Continue to contrive with clocks as I struggle to

Partition this reverie. There will be ample time
For waking in the next uprising of half-moons.

Partition this reverie. Ah, it still works.

My new thing. Will visit this post, not just the blog, every single month. I am excited of what I TO, not I AM TO, but I TO, BECOME.
