Another Beautiful Day

Bottle blue
And brittle
In their glassy joy
Those eyes that own me
That catch lions
And tigers
And bears
Before bed
And when the shutters fall
Dropping a fringe of
Pitch black lashes
Onto milky silky
I breathe out
My tank empty
Buzzing as the toes do
After pins and needles
Spent of all love
All care
When a full day is done
I’ll wind myself up
Recharge over night
Tomorrow will be
Another beautiful day
