after the blue high above takes a dark turn and slips off to the Unknown<\/p>\n
after things have looked the same for a -bit-far- too long<\/p>\n
after we\u2019ve seen all sides of Shade and the general glare and the juxta<\/p>\n
after the world gets a little less demanding, maybe the Wind starts to Wind down<\/p>\n
when the Shadows loom larger and longer than the sources, streetlights turned to sidewalk High-rises<\/p>\n
when cool seems a word just Perfect to use<\/p>\n
when the sun comes down to meet us rather than hide above our Heads or in

when we -Meet-Met- eye to eye<\/p>\n
before true Space spills out across the sky in a Slow, gradual gradient<\/p>\n
before small dots of light purposefully place their Celestial bodies out for View<\/p>\n
before illumination comes from artificial avenues and energy-Friendly resources<\/p>\n
before the pupils of our eyes systematically expand to account for the lurking
\nworld (just like in Science class)<\/p>\n
we\u2019ll think introspectively, Meditatively for a change-moment-ever<\/p>\n
we\u2019ll squint our eyelids in attempts to Realize such Awe<\/p>\n
we\u2019ll Breathe in all around us and all that is around us purposefully<\/p>\n
we\u2019ll hold it for as long as we See fit, spread Ourselves into every -fiber-particle-bit-piece-molecule- and inhabit those little Miracles that surround Us<\/p>\n
we\u2019ll exhale and let it all out with the -gifts-words-life-hope-desires- that we
\nGave to them to be dispersed among the World<\/p>\n
we\u2019ll have the sides of our Mouths up Naturally, unafraid of the -creases-
