Circadian

Blaring klaxons rouse the weary Fumble for steaming mug of pain Stiletto sunrise, eyes bleary Sandman’s Valium starts to drain Resplendent youth line up for inculcation Foreheads kissed, lunchboxes brimming Then practiced subroutines of remuneration Contentious jockeying, sinking/swimming A million convocations for stricken minds Urgent catharsis, and perhaps, listening Long awaited liaisons, pairs entwined Pheromonal interweaving, skin glistening Round beer babies nursing towards sleep Gluttonous eyes devour psychedelic flashes Daydreams of love, wide and deep Half-empty bottles, faint taste of ashes 3/7/16
