colden sun days

“A repitition is the re-enactment of past experience toward the end of isolating the time segment which has lapsed in order that it, the lapsed time, can be savored of itself and without the usual adulteration of events that clog time like peanuts in a brittle.”  Walker Percy – The Moviegoer

Pilot leans into it, points downward the dive-nose on this plastic bird

and tilts the world one over.

A true friend, this view - 

for all the places on the map

and all the people proud of their own,

it's what we've been through and been through together

as any good brother'd understand.


"And if you're partial to the night sky,

if you're vaguely a-ttracted to roof-tops."

Because the mood only comes round

once in a blue moon'r two,

you're best to cling awarely

tight, give full reign in order

see how far it travels you...

Thinking what a mysterious and lovely thing

how stories bend and bond, amalgamate

their characters.  Thinking how

"What's mine is yours

and yours of course is mine."


A pack full and leaning there

lazy on the wall

knowing all is primed and yet

unpromised, hidden round the corner

hidden somewhere neath

the hard and frozen earth,

thawing come the morning

come these colden sun days.
