BEFORE DAWN

Posted on March 13, 2021 by | 1 Comment

White sky,

purple frigates crash

into foothill silhouettes—

some slip behind,

compass heading east

trailing a damp cold front.

Headlights crawl

up the road, spotlight

searches sycamores

to a heavy bass beat

for something to kill,

something to eat.

    What a wonderful sight, John, and a wonderful poem to go with it!
