Morning Extraordinary

 

Sea a white slab,

sky soft bag of sunlight,

the mountains opposite

suspended in mid-air; a dream place.


Cosily plump,

swaddled in greenery,

a pigeon sits zen-like

deeply contemplating;


as though daylight arrived before day,

and the world, caught in a spotlight,

blank and unsteady

has, as yet, its constituent parts unresolved.


The shock

as you peel away from the oblivion of sleep;

the implausibility of it;

the infinity of ends that all meet.
