have you ever looked at the stars
fade away as sun hauls its brill'nt orange
over the inky blue swathes of the night?
Have you ever awed at distant swishes of golden red
amid a breaking blue glitter upon the rippling sea,
as the sun appears, not a ball of fire, or a fiery jewel,
but an oblong violent streak!
Like an arrow bursting from a bow of fire..
Half-mind lost to this celestial jig
Half-mind to ponder why i wandered the beach, alone, at the break of a sunday morning
I traced about, along the shore of zealous waves
in a trance of utter bewilderment
at how little I know myself..
and how little I can do to help it....
