driving forward away from the reddened sunrise

setting up shop on a still elbow of the web

hoping for a happier night and days ahead

taking it all in with a grain of salt and sand

going back to sleep long after the roar and blah

reading things with stillness before the new soft week

keeping up with the tidbits about tomorrow

dithering at the thought of the new week ahead

writing this line again to hide outworn nods

wanting it all does not mean one will get it all

coming back home to soothe with the mind all quenched up

sitting still after the wild and fulsome weekend

freeing up room in the mind for more helpful things

getting ready for new year-end undertakings

giving unto a new run towards the network

undoing the last few years of deep nothingness

hoping tomorrow will begin a sense of drive

bringing back to mind what happened this time last year

softening the songs and getting set for "the books"

sleeping already for some thicker days ahead

arising early to start a new path with life
