Rise and shine you beautiful catastrophe!
The wonders of the world lie outside that window
waiting for new neighbours of your design
the sun, like flashing cameras, dances the river aglow
and a child has witnessed a butterfly for the very first time
the realm of his possible
is alight with new colours and anatomies
and his mind, awash in fresh branches
wants you to bud them with leaves
Rise up! and splay your greatness across today
With your bones of molasses and hair like riot
Your waking mind awaits its new monarch
bring order to the roiling unrest, bring quiet
Decree that the festivities now can start!
There's a debt to existence you've yet to pay back
you cretinous miracle
set your feet on the earth
and shake time with the weight of your gifts
