The day began timid. Yes I know Clouds were bulky / but sparse Sun don’t come yet / several stars still persist. Sleep left / before the Mainland, woke up. Another day / he thought / another way. Will be active? / Will be done? / Before is gone? Play into your actions / think before you move Ride the wave / Fly with your flow. Invent what you like / your body presence. What do you know? / Where are the questions? Where do you belong? / Are the answers ready / for me? / Going along? This day began timid, yesss . . . I know Are my dreams blowing up? Is anybody in my soul? When will I wake up? Silent / Quiet / full of growth. There is a venue / the winds that blow? Wiring / Witty / Wizard / Whistling into my body? Caressing my skin / Pushing my eyebrows / Rubbing my will Moment to moment Is where I know Is where I stand, firm to my thoughts. As the day goes by / answers are done. Where are my questions? Can I see it alone? Or. . . Maybe I am wrong . . . The day began slowly . . . yesss . . . I know. Light is taking over, as the sun goes up. Heat is melting / the night before. Looking clear / into . . . the place I am? Knowing / that when the time is up. The night comes slowly as the day before.
