I woke to her hand laying
gently on me
at four AM, Sun King.mp3
on my Pentium PC playing.
Was it yesterday? Last week?
The diligent Greek
mistook it for a beast
that eats you. Not knowing
that the manticore
is just time that is going.
This morning, it feels
like it happened the night before.
So sad, so sweet,
the days that are no more.*
