a gentle alarm clock
and the day looms long
the hours a house of cards
higher and higher
fragile but huge
from this innocent awakening
i foresee the future
and it's long

    My orbital trajectory has
    picked up a wide arc lately
    and has developed a bit of a wobble
    my awakenings are no longer innocent
    but incessant & first thoughts
    are overrun & trampled
    by first thoughts
    at this point I hope for many looming days
    but that could change
    at any moment

        day blooms song
        singing along
        to an old woman
        in montgomery
        and I am another
        named after my mother

        bein with the ones you love
        jamming and smoking
        Kitty Genovese
        Died for the want
        Of a small cirlcle of Friends
        I don't what time it is in the holy land
        but hear in the real world
        The McHolyland
        It is Phil Ochs appreciation Day

    the day
    grammatically
    a designation
    as to
    the passage
    of time
    no matter
    how brutal
    the role
    it plays
    episodically

      the day on earth
      a geographical location
      local time
      the day on earth is 24 hours
      how long is that in star time
      can't be very long
      less than a twinkle of a distant star




      time passes episodically for me
      in jerks and spurts and freeze frame

        a buncha hours ahead of me
        i know i'll run into em soon
        if i keep up this pace
        bound to catch up to em soon
        got a whiff, the scent
        i know they took this trail
        just gotta follow the road
        i know it, just wait

          caught them hours
          the load so weighty
          making ya dead tired
          relentlessly sleepy
          wantin’ some rest
          just vegetate awhile
          lettin’ hours slip on by
          not worryin’ what day

              a day of rest
              relaxin’ a little
              enjoying the day
              not counting minutes
              but accepting moments
              lettin’ it just happen
              no fussin’ or frettin’
              taken it all in stride
              lovin’ the respite
              lessenin’ the pace

                and on again
                up at five breathe
                water, coffee, breathe
                e-mail, rather not news
                breathe
                birds out singing paradise
                breathe
                more birds, and more
                utter attention birds
                day is already amazing
