| | Awake - 10.03.06
The light plays through the leaves like shafts of heat
and shade provides, this time, a welcome ease.
No darkness of the heart comes through the beat
of life, slowed down, the better for the trees.
(The note of which has import more than art
that comes by way of sight sans any in.
of wonder for the smaller, lesser parts
without which art would not, attention, win.)
But note of life supplies not everything,
and motion gives assurances of life,
so be, if not quick to wake and take wing,
at least accepting of the final knife.
And if the knife is not the path you'd take,
Then rouse ere you cannot fix the mistake.
(yeah, this one's for english, hence iambic pentameter, ababcdcdefefgg, 1st 2 quatrains w/ conflict and 3rd quatrain + couplet w/ resolution)
