PAD - Day 6 - Night glow





Night glow

In the darkening night a glow
Of all that too presumptuous blares
Reposed, becalmed in the soft side of cares
In beds and pallets still and tossed
From palace scented frangipani to desert lost
The marble spins blue in the darkening night a glow
Souls flit and rise in ephemeral spirits song I know
All ripped connections, of face, place, uniform and so
In the navied night - all joined as one humanity – this I know
