Sunrise 2/3/24

The shade is pulled above our bed, and through The silken hanging drapes the sun affixes Its beam to cast our shadows on the blue, The pale-blue, green-blue walls where color mixes With a vibrant painting painted by your mother, Of pink and white flowers in a vase That seem to be finale of some other Suspended history of time and place. Imagine Wallace Stevens played by Bill Murray and the emperor like a groundhog Finding his way over a distant hill For the first time after that repetitive slog Of doing time in Plato's illusory cave, Then waking up free, no longer a slave. screenshot for the sake of the lines: This is a public episode.
