Distant Promise

Lone star blazing in the sky

Motion picture signal tower lights

I love it when the Day meets Night

Even when my body leaves my mind

Twilight in-between state

This haze leaves no room for hate

I fall humble

To the white rabbit running late

My eyes were too far apart this morning 

My brain gave me fair warning

So I ground myself in the steps I take

Down Seventh Street, and sit in the grass

Looking up at the lone star

And the tower's red light

Blinking in and out of existence 

Signaling and receiving

As I understand the meaning,

A wish floats by

So I grasp it for a moment

And send it off with love

That blazing promise up above

Is even more distant than the world around me

But...

I can still have faith in what I see
