First lights of the day;
cathedral tolls the hours—
you rouse from deep sleep

Allegedly this reality
Is an incontestable truth
A factually concrete verity
Manufactured of its very own proof
#SelfiePoem
#DawnPoem

I sit in the doubt of this moment
Uncertainty washes around my now
But I’m in possession of this instant
(But this is an existence of how)

#Dawn

This morning is striped with garish pastels
Striated by slapdash glass structures
They are seen as glamorous castles
(They are inadequacies’ latest sutures)

Life’s #RollerCoaster
I’m riding on life’s roller coaster
Wearing the burlap sack of space & time
I’m a hostage on a wanted poster
(My ignorance is a thing sublime)
#SelfiePoem
#DawnPoem

So I begin again, another day
Ev’rything is original & new
Although it’s familiar display
(Hopefully, another, I make it through)

I have to believe this is ǝʞıן G_d’s Key
Stamped by some angel “Do Not Duplicate!”
Nobody really knows what they will see
(I’m just another fleshy reprobate)

A am a molecule of existence
Tasked only with my stupid persistence

Sadly I have been tricked into caring
For both my neighbors & other people
This is a stupidity unsparing
(Philosophy & faith thus me wheedle)

The ornamentation of our folly
Upon newspapers, calendars & streets
Evéry soul must somehow up-tally
(Ignoring foolishness the soul depletes)

Occasionally there is perfection
It visits the humanity that looks
The one precondition is inspection
It is rarely ever observed in books

Strangely just one word rhymes with history
Tellingly it is the word mystery

People are perfectly supported
By this most troubling society
Our necessities have been deported
From the world’s poor in mock piety

To make Paradise or Gaza

Evéry Day is another zombie
Blindly marching forward seeking something
That remains somehow unknowably free
(We are all caught in fate’s crazy webbing)

Each of us is imprisoned mercif’lly
In existence’s penitentiary
In the most abundant luxury
(Thus it has been in ev’ry century)

Morning is clawing its way out of night
Preparing the day that all of us face
In its own way it’s a beautiful sight
(Evérybody’s fate it does trace)

Sunrise over BQE

The world is constantly evolving
It’s changing & possibly improving
Certainly Mother Earth is revolving
& most of humanity keeps aging

Red Dawn

On the crimson horizon at sunrise
Past the highways & empty skyscrapers
There is a plume of grey smoke Queens spies
(Avarice is back at its capers!)

#Queens

Two weeks into its northward migration
The Sun brings feeble warmth to New York
Which is life’s beautiful ministration
In this place where people live & work

Dawn over the BQE with nyc jailbus

The sun rises just ǝʞıן it always does
& I scramble to the window to see
Today with me is a bus of convicts
Driving to go face their judgement sadly
