The Anatomy of a Good Day

i have tea. i suspect the morning is surrounding the world with a tiny cup of sunlight.

and there are no usual things. everything is unusual. everything.

i am here now… and i feel it. and i will never have a cage with a bird inside. i am not cruel.

i’m drinking tea.

i’m not bored. i’m just waiting. my eyes are never sure about the splendor. they suspect a spring

attached to tiny gears, die cut whirligigs and ethereal hands attending; deep underneath my gazing. and i am still tired… the shackles of entropy hold sway and i contend with easy wit in a fog of sparkles. it’s a sloooooow glorious. even with too much sugar in my tea, because sleepy.

you get out of bed to greet me.

it’s a good day.
