has always faced the sun, no matter
if they were facing east or west
although I am bummed this morning
because I woke up and remembered
I am 40 years old, not 30 years old
and then the southern sun reminded me
I have zero fight, meaning nothing
to battle today, so I can just live
I have woken up in front of many windows,
with many people with many pasts,
but I am just glad to open my eyes
despite time and age, despite dry mouth,
just drink water with smiling fangs,
and live another day to sleep in front of another window.
