May 27

a morning solution to the night awakens

doors open...  outside light enters...

cats sit side by side waiting for treats,

coffee warms in the microwave and

pods await to be pierced...  a channel

of news is selected...  we listen, perhaps

learn something new...  but, more than

likely just a reiteration...  negativity slurs

the future and obscures the past...  we

squat in mental sinkholes with our toys,

aberrations of our youth...  telltale signs

of change are mailed in daily to the

census takers who patrol the borders

between our states of mind hoping to

see latent signs of life...  a green life

surrounds our southern styles while

legumes replace beef - salads replace 

starch and soups sit on the breakfast

table for us to dip our french toast into,

a morning solution awakens from the

night - morning moisture clings to us

like wet clothes - our eyes open to the

reality of what life has now become.
