At 5:00 am

Fog has obscured
My Cape Light
My Fast & True
Steadily Flashing
Like A Multi-carat Diamond
Against My Window Sill
My Bedroom Delight
there is nothing out there now
butt a dark haze
Ready to glow with the coming dawn
Ready to signal My Rising
And As Eye linger
Over My Writing
A Neighbour’s Headlights Drive Out
Illuminating Slowly
My Drenched Window
My Dripping Window
