No morning is mediocre yet
the press of collective days is
a numbness
No morning is mediocre when
the blue jay’s offspring are
squalling gleefully at the top of the telephone pole
No morning is mediocre but
I am some days
unable to be reborn in the daylight
No morning is mediocre so
let’s all rejoice at the dawn while
holding our grief in these leaking
bowls of our hands
