Classy Morning

What morning does is trick you
into thinking someone's just left
the bed to go to the bathroom or is drinking
tea at the big table. Morning makes
you think you can solve problems,
do math, send thoughts and change
minds. Morning is light and heavy
as any instrument of war. But still,
when I run through the last traces
of night, blue fingers of dawn lift
the sky and my heart into now.
This is all I have, so I'll do with it
what I must by being here
and moving through it in a classy way.
