Distant bells start the day
the sun casts strips on blue-gray walls
cobwebs hanging lazily above
not strong enough to pull bodies
from beds
of hard wood and tiresome sleep
on the edge of this pencil, a poem
lazier
watching specs of dust
gracefully failing to fly
Early rising
needing more sand than most
