stretch (the morning)

smokestacks
and sunlight
set the foundation
for a
warm side
and a reason
to set aside
the alarm
and the day's plans
for a minute or two
longer
signs of a night
well spent
rhythm and blues
to match the hues
of the sky
its time
to make it
happen

once...

the hurt stole
the show
with its
jeykll-hyde
performance
award winning
an encore was worthy


twice...

the warmth and
the levitation
so spiritual
a shaman couldn't
conjure it
with charms
and the like

thrice...

arrival
acceptance
arise.
looks like its gonna be a good day today
