call to darkness, cup rich black

Light breaks. I heed the

magic in my hands.
Weighing sleep against
productivity, I write
into a new day.
Booths shelter those hung
over, elbows tacky with
pancake syrup spills.
Eyes red focus shot
totally worthless but I
still need that paycheck.
You still up? Dude, it’s
not like the internet won’t
be there tomorrow.
I would like to see
4 am start off my day
instead of end it.
Where did they go? Wake.
Eat. Work. Pay bills. Each the same.
Days blink by, all gone.
I type in a dim
dark room listening to surf.
There’s an app for that.
Late night TV a
wonderland of fast money
junkyard of trashed dreams.
Our longer springtime
walks knock him out. There he lies
fat happy fur child.
