quiet heralds of dust are innkeepers ... #NaPoWriMo2018 Day 15



seeking the Sun 
a must 
where weather went 
seeking us 
emptying shadows 
into night 
we trained ourselves 
to worship 
daylight 
bleeding, 
softly at first 
facing the light 
over a hushed 
yet to stir 
street-n-land-s-cape ...

coffee thoughts 
nose dove in 
we escape crepe perhaps 
egg and basket sweet 
dreams of demons 
sleeping until complete 
sunsets or typesets  
with printing presses 
guessing what 
a guest needs ...

we kept sirens 
and junkies 
toeing 
the lines 
of wear 
humanity 
got inside 
our souls ... 

the jazz was piano driven rhythm drive 
lee morgan's sidewinder 
popping like 
the silk pills 
of another starlet 
gone on to why 
it is wise 
to wander life with 
a wide berth ...

here 
at the end 
of most poems 
we slip the stream 
careful acorns 
seedy hotels 
we meet at 
when once 
or again 
we ran around 
trying not to be found 
in each other's arms ...

 morning 
misty grey skies 
indefatigable lies 
of where Spring went 
this year, dear 
another not so 
lonely, loving 
you time 
we wished 
it were 
warmer 
outside ...
