A day without complaints
imagining fireflies plucking banjos, playing spoons;
packing for ventures
with too many life-saving devices
for a life to be given away like so much canned heat.
We hold our charms to be self evident
and make no bones
about disdaining the things we want,
though we could power whole cities
with the energy
of our constant backpedaling.
So no dark words today,
for the day will be lit from inside.
