the night owl

no longer the early

bird,

i'm a night owl.

i'm

in the tree

silhouetted

by a silver moon.

i'm asking

questions.

i'm large eyed and aware

of what

passes below.

i can sit here all

night

if need be,

tomorrow i'll sleep,

but for now,

i'll keep watch,

i'll ponder 

all things both known

and unknown,

it's the new me.
