every day however i see it and allow myself to enter it with grace
becomes that absolute solace of 'everything is new' but acting so seals the deal 
.
no matter what this is the first day of all the days and my lack of mental control
makes it seem like a bouncy house i blame you for the turmoil
.
later of course i love everyone like the statues of beings that love 
i have gathered a few over my bookcases and paintings
.
they are as indispensable as railroad crossing signals 
or the offramps trucks can ride into when they have no brakes
.
if you are there look at the chamomile blossoms on the hillside and red stone you tread on
i took them all for granted but now let us set that aside and have this new day
