 IN FRIENDSHIP WITH AWAKENING: a quadrille

Sadness awakens me with overthinking and overhearing. 

What of dust settled after evening breezes of yesterday 

and  crispness of melon rind in wee hours of tomorrow? 

 We've watched helplessly 

as heartbeats erode sleep of predawn.

We now conspire to decipher time in silence.
