i think i might just understand
the morning

with an instinctive desire
to be aware of… ( pause and take three deep breaths )
…through honest observation
sensuous exploration
and as innocent an inquiry as is possible

considering the circumstances of course

even so
that yellow glow
as the dog’s report

likely a bitter pill
lurking within the curd
and then the pain

i stand agog
again

but then
a curious anticipation overwhelms me
only then to trickle down and tickle
my cognitive latency reflex

oh the welcome sounds
of what can only be some kind of imaginary harmonium

i fail to conceal my swoon
for this sad
yet conciliatory timbre
this tumultuous tune

and so to obscure the din
the bang bang banging
raging and ringing
this tin i’m in

then again
perhaps i actually almost do
get
a thing or two
or more likely…

exactly nothing

see you soon
afternoon

Peace
