Thoughts of the New Day By Jay Jacobs On the morning porch I sit observing the early world. Heavy with rainbow dewdrops, a glistening spider web spun between the railings reflects the new day’s light. Enticing unwary airborne and terrestrial commuters into its mesmerizing embrace, it beckons, a sparkling invitation to be consumed. Walking through the shadowy, damp woods, our thunderous footfalls alert scores of vibration sensitive earthworms to our presence. Emerging from amongst the soggy forest detritus, slithering far faster than their sluggish city cousins, slimy, ropy bodies slide down the hillside en masse, a living landslide of squirming bird food.
