Morning

I think I hear daylight coming.
Its trashing cans crash,
motors rev and voices sprinkle.
Sometimes I try to lock it out
with blankets, shades and pills,
but not today.
Today I am eager for reflection.
Another twelve-hour fire
has been lit and I am ready
to be consumed.
Soon enough the darkness
will reclaim me.
I throw this blazing day
into its way.
