For Another Blessed Day, I Ressurect
Once again
My heart has beaten into a fresh puddle of dawn
The sun has licked my eyes awake
Chance sits on the other side of my front door.
Outside, the grass waits for my toes
The men wet their lips for whistling
The women spice their necks with perfume and smog
The moon tucks itself into bed
And I’m all here... above ground
Drooling praise for my golden breath
For my dancing bones and blood
For another blessed day
I resurrect
