Morning

It is a moonscape: broken glass, oatmeal concrete, opaque shadows.
Still dim;
eyelashes to break citrus, gold, yellow-
Tumbling downstairs, boxes flatten, dominoes fly, 
Millipede arms, legs and fingers drumming.

Pictures wave on a curtain of wind,
Strobe lights, lasers and messages on the wall.

Broken down, white cat front-end transmission,
Stagger weighted motion, swinging outward counter-balance steel ball…

The smell of machine oil, the tap of feet 
Passing overhead

re-lock.
Cylinders revolve, levers catch, barrels rotate,
Meaning, vision and dreams return

Complete.
Start again the day.
