The Best of Afternoons

1-21-2013 The Best of Afternoons Lying awake,I could see the light of day, Through the door ,that of a keyhole, Out of my opening eyes I notice, the lazy clock reaches up as the candle light did, Somewhat like the night before, On the wall,my calenders' picture, A monkey in a sailor's suit with a pageboy haircut, The summer breeze sneaks a glimps of future funny poses, What will the future bring,hopefully more that just monkey business, As in slow motion at first,surely- I race into the openess, Seemingly resilient from a restless night of dreaming, Through the sound of a far-a-way intuition calling, Me out from into the sunlight,away from these cumbersome blues.
