Awakening



How is it that I have become
a morning person
who no longer waits for reveille and light
awakening instead to the pliant
to the dark that becomes day.

This happens to me, but only during post-European jet lag. After many moody and interesting 4:00 AM wake ups I finally woke at 8:00 AM today. I do miss the quiet darkness.

"To the pliant / To the dark ".... I remember the feel of predawn. These words capture it perfectly.
