*Goodnight father Goodnight sun Goodnight detestability of day and enjoyment of all things costly and fun Goodnight to you And goodnight to me Goodnight dear bed frame and thank you for this, your stability Goodnight my pillow Goodnight my bed Goodnight and would you carry me, over the moon and back again? Goodnight to you, to these honest things, which I may or may not mind first thing in the morning Goodnight my distant memories And goodnight to my favorite mystery, to your quiet and kind consistencies For it’s a good night I offer, honestly A good night from another A goodnight from me Goodnight my father Goodnight to your son Goodnight moonlit stars and spinning earth Though the turning therein has just begun Goodnight my Lord, goodnight and please, watch over those in need of sleep Goodnight my God, a good night to you Good night you have been, good to me*
