Somewhere far away
sunlight wakes the night sleepers
blinking out streetlights

blinking out streetlights,
the night sleeps, morning covers,
drowsy crescent moon
drowsy crescent moon
drowns in the dark womb of night
paving way for Eid.

When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones.

paving way for Eid,
Id exchanged for lack of will,
dream-bedraggled nest

and somehow a dog
has taken itself & its tail considerably away
into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
behind: me, wag.

dream-bedgraggled nest
high up in the tree of life
grog running through veins

Grog running through veins
just one serving more my dear
the night is bitter
Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty
~Albert Einstein
the night is bitter
rain, snow and slush choke my soul
I need warmth, my dear!

I need warmth, my dear!
let us light up a fire
while we watch the stars
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe
while we watch the stars
let the moon bird kiss your lips
and rend heart of fire!

And rend heart of fire
in houses made for snow dunes
beware the North wind
Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty
~Albert Einstein
Beware the North wind
sweeping over Southern plains -
memories of ice.

memories of ice
send a chill up the spine;
the statue trembles....

the statue trembles
with a stirring breath of life
marble turned to flesh
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe
