proverb and expectation
dictate a glorious morn
scarlet singing sunrise
Apollo anointed
golden tongued streamers
disentangling dark
of world and thought
from Nyx’s ether
blazing luminary
lighting and lightening
temporal burdens
from sleep-stooped shoulders
disenchantment mourns
a greyed and heavy cloak
drizzle drooped
upon Aurora
dawn, cracked and leaden
seeps nebulous glimmers
