DAWNS UNFURLING WAVE

do i die some in this unfurling wave?
in this nearly dawn of night?
my insect heart racing all one summer day that was a mystery even as i rode it's anxious rolls
and the fresh air stimulates my sodden heavy mind and the wait for the transcendent moments when i am still a small god.
do i fly somehow round the daylight beacons?  do i fly ok?
soon i awkwardly land to crash again . . . 
and i am magic in my sloth of grace 
and subtle white flab of enormous dignity
though 
admit
i coarsely fart a bit with relief
when i see there is no light just yet in the changing sky.
it is not bad for a small god like i
to wind out the epic day and the saviour night
with scotch and scotch and scotch till dawns unfurling wave.
things that are AMAZING are only ever on TV
and the sky out here now is dreaming its vista of the worlds end
and the crazy people do their madness so close to my quiet paths and blue hesitations - they are all background gold
a silver barrage of horror and smiles
and time; TIME exposes the experience of the small god like i
his clarity moments
his insane instants
are helpless screen burn as the same song coming out the kitchen again
and he (the small god like i) 
thinks he has something to tell someone . . . 
but his sad belching and baggy slouch habits
shuffle the small god
out to the garage and 
aimlessly
up 
and 
down 
the lawn.
