Morningtime

On staggering towards the midnight bells,
that simple, convoluted shade of man
may dwindle, then dissolve within his mind.

Too busy for display, more bitter still,
a prisoner to everything that was,
the flickers from the present fade unseen.

Forgetting to unclench one cramping fist,
he wanders back to cloudy, sunny days
of kites aloft and Rubicons uncrossed.

His morningtime, before the lights went out,
where never came a pause for second thought,
he might have been a person they could love.

I heard Bluesky accounts are getting suspended for criticizing JK Rowling so let’s find out. JK Rowling aka Jake Hay is a hateful old cow who should spend her time and money doing something other than spewing vitriol at people who are simply trying to live their best life. Get a better hobby, Jake.
