March Seventeenth Sunrise

March Sixteenth Sunrise

Sunrise from the Fondamenta Nove The Fondamenta Nove gazes east Across the great lagoon and past the graves Of Brodsky, Pound, Stravinsky, and the beast Of Venice, namely Potter with his waves Of ink that flash and glint like squid Whose brains like those of poets are nocturnal But still embrace the lifting of the lid Of day, the new foundation of eternal Imagination carried from the night Like catches hauled in nets of straining lines Laid out in sepia tones transformed to light Illuminating

waking in the dark from uneasy dreamsI feel a kafkaesque anxiety come over me as if I know not seems, (but I know I do, in perplexity in a temple built of uncertainty) the tradewinds of uncanny servitude bring sunrise as a broken interlude like this poem propping up the ceiling and this strange and lovely beatitude of dawn undoing my fear-fraught feeling This is a public episode.

Frozen Sunrise

jopomojo ·

2026/02/06

I had to warm up my caras the sun rose and the sky began to saturate. Being cold and having slept poorly, my mood was icy and angry and ready for movement. As I aimed my crusted car onto the gray and white street— the white snow and gray ice— the dilemma of my destiny weighed on me, and the affections of my life warmed the car.
