Hardly morning pages,
undawned the day
as velvet night rests beyond the window
which floods my room with light

hardly been here, well here yes but not there
where are you
hold my hand and heart still

linger a little while

allow me and yourself a gentle smile

potter to your kitchen and flick your kettle switch
or turn up the gas or light the bonfire or camping gas beneath your billy can

and kick back relax

so much humanity

so much friendship declared
and love and listening
human
you and the others
here
with you and me

humankind
gentle
handsome
loving
