Midnight, Before and After

by Rocky Macy

Midnight, Before and After

Deleterious
descending
darkness

shades slipping
through twilight
roam the river’s rim
catching the cricket cacophony
celebrating
the death of daylight

drab and droll
the willful waters wend
quietly
toward tomorrow
where a seething sun
will ignite Icarus

boldly
begetting
beauty.
