a crossing
to a new day
a bridge
between
the last
and this

keeping
acute focus
on the whole
not examining
the individual fragments

relief
the river
below
a flowing
of the extraneous
watching
as they disappear

relief
the sky
above
a floating
of white relevance
absorbing
the negativity as it appears

leave
the last
pass on to this
crossing
to a new day
step off
the bridge
of in-between
