morning makes
no compromises
it reveals to us
the actions
of the night
and hides
the moon
in its light
everything before is meaningless
everything before is everything
which side are you on
we are not
morning
like prospectors
without pans
we wade in
murky water
that hides
untold
riches
everything before is meaningless
everything before is everything
which side are you on
tripping over
pebbles
and god we
stumble toward
nothing when
everything
is directly
below
everything before is meaningless
everything before is everything
which side are you on
