it was a jonah day everything askew caught on the tenterhooks of ennui with no visions to lift me from the grip of folly
i watched relentless night swallow the sun and knew if i sat there in the claustrophobia of nothingness i would fly apart
in desperation I took myself to the attic determined to order that mare's nest of monuments to memory bury myself in the proof i had lived a life for i surely have none now
and there i found much to console but also much to remedy or regret before i die this occupation kept me focused with contrived but necessary purpose
papers flew as did the dust of days long dead i no longer vibrated like catgut wound too tight then i found you smiling up at me from a glossy eight by ten
for a moment that seemed an eternity i froze afraid to blink afraid to breathe then got up and went to the window to escape your eyes
the moon rose from the clouds amid a sprinkling of stars a silver sliver hanging in a millionblue palette a perfect night almost
