Morning

Updated: Nov 8, 2022

The city begins

where I end sun

leaking into Athens

day, a second chance

Greece wakes even

after they've named

her dead they call

what we know

endurance

as survival

a virtue

I napped as they did

in the ancient city

saw you behind my

eyes the phoenix

stubborn and impossible

to die as do you

remain they call

what we know

endurance

as survival

a virtue
