At Dawn they will bring the news

77 32 30
                                    


Democratic mist which mists everything

Is scared by the sacred sunlit morning

In which an old abandoned house bathes

With sunlight beaming through history's hole

It lies in anxious anticipation

With its steel windows closed and wooden doors shut

It waits in the juvenile morning

Like a wife for her husband at borders

Like a husband- for a wife- departed for a better man

And the dear departed, anxiously awaited,

Does return, (unlike the husbands or wives)

In a shadow tinted ultrasonic cluster

Barging through the ventral history hole

To sleep upside down and paint floor crap hued

And at dawn they have brought the news

For night spills more secrets than days

Secrets of wives and their other husbands,

Secrets of husbands and their other wives

Secrets of politicians' foolproof lies

Secrets of oppositions' conspiracies

Batmen and batwomen in their old home

While robins chirp outside; alongside jays

And the old gold house grooms its tenants

Thinking- at dawn they will bring the news- again.
