Mediochre Sunrise

November 13, 2025

The Hawk Dining Room

7:50 am

2 write of mediocrity

even for a sunrise

seems fraught w/ the assurance

of mediocre writing —

too sparse was the salmon pink

its star — planet — clouded over —

no clouds were highlighted in gold

except for when the sun

eventually came up

behind the upper branches

of my neighbours’ one living tree

— leafless —

Eye did however catch the sun’s glimmer

as Eye sat outside 2 watch that morning phenomenon

w/ my cup of — you guessed it —

tepid tea
