You reminded me
just how dark we are.

And you say your life has changed,
everything in its perspective--
Life and death.

I'll just sit by the window
        --Is it time yet--
and watch the sun set
        --Is it--
4:31 pm.

You cast everything over with
shades of tragic beauty.
Blue, gold, black,
fragmented light,
somehow broken.

I used to love the darkness
and you make the sun set at noon.
        --Is it time--
No.  We'll watch the clock for hours.
