Sheer Ecstatic Sanity of Perfect Genius Sun
up before dawn
without alarm
looking out window
i saw through
its dying darkness
faint red lights
blood dim blush
illumined across
contoured bottom
vast low blanket
of cotton ball
cloud filled sky
spread out
in its subtle stealth
like some benevolent
phantom presence
of slumbering comfort
some unexpected
deaf mute guest
who came in silence
undetected
sometime in the night
hovering above us
in our sleep
to shelter and shield
us from ourselves
down here below
upon this little
isle of sand
to contain and secure
us safely beneath
its subconscious spell
within the relative
neutrality of all
our random dreams
to give this precious
wearied earth
as well as all
of us at least
this little bit
of blessed
temporary relief
from ourselves
intuitively sensing
all of this
i quickly dress
compelled to rush
down to the beach
eager in some
inwardly hungry way
to witness and receive
to open and release
whatever new poems
or heartfelt prayers
may come into
or through
me there
simply by succumbing
and surrendering
so willingly to
the certain wonder
of this rapidly
unfolding
new dawn
so as to savor
more fully
the sheer
ecstatic sanity
in this now
fast approaching
soon enough
to blossom
perfect
genius
sun
