Black Sun Rising

changing dawn to dusk second hand eternal turning nights of spirit, senseless knight indescribable yet earthly yearning night side world melts into glass black sun rising at our core stars as chandeliers in gloom glinting dull on backlit shores coarsened souls will rise naive sunshine hides its rays God's gift of sorrow to the world hearts are built to break away shivering in stillness secrets hide in opaque jars isolation masquerade all alone in crowded bars zazen tonic with a twist one-act darkness for tonight fruitful empty willing hand struggles only lose the fight as fairy glamour pierces night humid air grows stale breaking dawn and blue sky water rescue from poor Jonah's whale.
