While working late/early: 01:23 in e-talk w Rebbesoul, on the Am Israel Project

when day begins

shall we count time by this clock
or shall we know the day/night as it is?
(un)cloaking our souls? ancient formulae?

Did not star pierced night begin the new day
with a blazing greeting, as the sun descended
in a red purple glory, promise of a new awakening,
carrying into sleep, through dreams,
erev, hours ago from now.

Does not the Earth bow so the Sun may rise
bringing morning light, shachrit,
with its golden red revealing bright
that will obscure the dark with its light,
boker, hours into the future (from) now

so this clock
does have its uses
in counting, between,
what was
&
what will be
from now to now
through then.

so to work
or to sleep
All G()d's Children
