Without
giving it so much as a
thought,
I awoke today believing
in
the sun, and there it was already
done.
Same with the planet Earth
beneath
my feet, an automatic
grounding
for me, right on time
and
in its rightful place. Faith in
reality,
good or bad, I believe.
Coffee
seems as air itself, my
precious
morning functionality.
Oh
good Lord yes, I do believe.
The
pain which accompanied me
to
bed last night greets me this
morning
as the framework of my
reality...Hello
arthritic hips and
knees.
So then, humans along
with
all other species still alive
and
thriving are driven in thought
and
deed by their own familiarity?
Yes,
precisely! In this my re-awaken-
ing,
I shall resist extinction. For today,
in
form and concept, this is reality—
in
and out I breathe, my unabashed
responsibility.
