McNight



I can’t tell the difference anymore
 Between night and day,
 Between the black and white birds.
 Checker and chess squares.
 The sky and the floor.
 They just seem to blur into one another.
 Like friends and brothers,
 Lovers and others.
 
Between wrong and right - and left.
 Between Bass and treble - clef,
 Sodom and Gomorrah,
 Man of the people and Kings, 
 I can’t see the difference in anything.
 I’m so absorbed with myself
 Like a sponge.
 Cake - let them eat all.
 
Turning the dial to a station I can
 Tolerate
 The Sun
 The Moon
 Almost anything that revolves
 Into something greater.
 The sum and it’s parts and parcels.
 Time to part the sea.
 Into something greater than me
 Day murders night
 in its’ sleep.
 Was day sleepwalking again?
 Was night trying to put up a fight?
 I don’t recall but 
 The birds seem to be going their own way now.
