Morning Ritual


morning sunlight peers into the

sunroom of my mind as sleeping

animals curl up on cat trees

placed in the corners of the room,

mental shadows walk the streets

of thoughts that meander their

way around historical artifacts

sometimes called memories in

lieu of making new ones...

fantasies linger in the shadows

watching for movement and

any indication that their time

is about to happen...  rolls of

discourse lay on the porcelain

floor like seashells on a beach

waiting to be snatched up by

throngs of tourists down from

their northern perches of blank

superiority...  a morning cough

alerts us to the day and we begin

to clean up our latent appearance.
