Before the Sun Rises

Before the Sun Rises

A Poem by Perdition

Before the sun rises

Before our flatfooted babe begins to emulate

Formulate warm heaven and fail

Breach from me a tear and terror

I hear them all. Alone, in our sleepy kitchen veil.


I smoke, holding on where the ancient clan assembles.

Wandering through absence land, a stage forgotten but for few.

Does anyone know the madness of death well earned?

A fence cold in mending and shell cases flowering in the green summer grasses of America?


I wonder? Each moment, running from past and 

here this child thrown from heaven-

Is she not the very thing of suffering?


Before the sun emerges

I will awake to find a language,

A fountain I have created,

Gathering the mind, mystically in balance of life and haste.

And her soundness asleep from mercy.


The wonder immensity, delivering me

Before the sun begins.
