dark blue

THE EVENING SKY IS MY MIRROR!

there are things i like about the day
and there are things i like about the night:
like the bright street lights and headlights
surrounded by the encompassing breath of
aging twilight.
like when you can see
a lit up flag waving in the wind,
but not the wind
and not the leaves
that represent and track its
bodiless course.

i like the warmth of the sun
and the embrace of the wind
and its voice as it ruffles the trees.
its illumination of objects
and its schizophrenic qualities;
the endless beauty of the electromagnetic spectrum
in all its visibility.

there are things i like about the day
and there are things i like about the night,
but the evening sky reflects my mind
and so evening
is my
equal.
