The New Day

The New Day

The light comes
softly across the body
waking it slowly, gently.

Suddenly the ego is alert
and proclaims a new day.
A speech, a parade,
a doctoral honorarium
the ego knows it has
come into its own.
All this fuss
is just for us
and a bright future
assured
for Me Me Me

The light
and the body
know
other
wise.



D.L. White
