Smells like Fall

Monday morning and the pre dawn light
smells like Fall
damp with subtle hints of fish guts
and petroleum


I'm back to riding the dragon...
don't let the cream and sugar fool you
Everyday starts with coffee


the time before coffee makes up my daily bardo
a backwards twilight with darkness slowly giving way to light and sounds
only the bean can lure me into the blaze of another day
on rainy days I have two cups
sad indeed during the La Nina years
