green! or coffee dark! white
as eyes popped open
like fireworks and
cymbals clapping (sun glancing off)
Earth racing to fill the cup
of sky, my insides
pressing out, skin
tight as a new mother's breast
this promise
the heart squeezing like a fist
raised for revolution
the sun, again
caffeine, caffeine! It rushes
in like the tide, inspires a sense of
This Day Matters
and suddenly everything shines
Possible is Probable, or at least
Attainable, and I am
Able and Eager to
Do It All
DO IT ALL
DO! IT! ALL!
I'm going to
by noon! And if not noon
dinner time and if not then
don't wait up
I'm spinning out beginnings and ends
where the sun drips down to the fireflies, now high,
now high high
in the sky, Venus Mars Jupiter
a billion stars
every one jittering
every one strung up on
caffeine,
caffeine caffeine!
