week 331 ~ madrugada breaks slowly as midnight
madrugada breaks slowly as midnight
crosses to dawn the invisible line
that’s passed before you notice shapes entwine
with colors as the world embracing light
surrenders to beauty morning returns
daily its changes hard to register
in sunrise colder today or later
details of no matter for hope relearns
what it needs to survive I’m learning too
redrawing my boundaries to rethink
time perched precariously on the brink
of sweeping across night’s horizon through
to what doesn’t exist yet where I’ll know
the seeds of change were planted long ago
[madrugada is the time after midnight and before dawn in Brazil and Argentina]
week 304 ~ look around this is where I am
look around this is where I am
within sound of a hurricane
underground where the brave remain
lost but found time runs on the lam
as dawn navigates the logjam
asking where I’ll be when it comes
following love’s fresh trail of crumbs
within sight of the horizon
questions obscure the conclusion
while tomorrow hangs by its thumbs
