between stirring and
awakening, the body must
regulate its core
temperature, issue
missives to the extreme
regions of
fingers, toes,
imagination,
feel for the solidity
of day’s arrival,
balancing on the
tightrope of that
dreamy edge,
using both legs
to experiment
with its spring.
between stirring
and awakening,
there is poetry
in the rising
.
