entry arrow5:20 PM | Listening to Max Richter's Sleep

I wonder what mechanism whirrs in the hearts
of those who see sunrise and despise it
for fallowness of brilliance, demanding more.
Isn't it enough that the sun deigns to shine?
The majesties of life are miracles obscured
in the mundane: a flower blooms, rain falls,
laughter springs from padlocked depths.
I listened once to music that was lullaby
For a runaway world. Someone demanded explanation
For the process, what sweat went to composing.
I said shush: to succumb is enough.
There will be no dissecting music, or light.
