A Poem a Day (661): Figure blue


Figure blue
 
Into the blue, we figure it late,
a skater in a dreamless eight,
full-circle swift in always time,
the leaf, so fine, in ever shine.
 
We reflect to fake our own escape,
return always, this blue-wash fate,
the time of us, our always being,
a wreck strewn on a splice of living.
 
In keeping, we wait here for morning,
dawn’s disguise of the dark we’ve seen,
rewash in blue, we try to begin again,
knowing things will always end the same.
