The sun sailed in a graceful arc
through a sky of azure blue
as rainbows are known to do.
Among the clouds, sometimes dark,
he always came shining through
as he kept on and flew.
Alas, it only seemed...mid-flight?
he was jolted by twilight,
where sun and skyline would crash soon
with explosive yellow and red,
and the sun would soon be dead,
black sky ruled by a bone white moon.
So, it is daily I ignore
signs that pile up more and more.
I postponed twilight's shock
'til I bent down, can't get up no more.
I can't get up off the floor.
Can you put on my sock?
