The clouds have kidnapped the morning – v5


an earnest game, something more
holding the sun for ransom
to repay an ancient debt
an unspoken recording
in the ledger of heaven,
the story of life

players on stage, out of the background,
clouds have kidnapped the morning
the sun not visible at all
the sky coming nearer
descending from the heavens
clouds pulled toward the ground
