White Clouds Rose Shining

White clouds rose shining coughs in morning lamps phlegm squeezes thoughts weary 
coffee mugs stain teeth flaking bones throb sermons pounding on ghosts open doors 
hallways fill whispered names kiss lips lost letters smear ink rain beats windows thunder 
awoke after midnight lightning struck sleep drifting in and out of eyes sunken beds groan 
and moan dreams toss and turn till dawn

you sure have a unique style, Alex. Great images for the people getting up in the morning and then as they go to sleep to dawn!
