Doors Thrown Open

Dawn doors thrown open My mind free to roam again Out into green fields

Some mornings waking up seems a release from prison: out into an awake freedom of having finally escaped sleep and its many subtle and unknown (though perhaps suspected or guessed at) rules and regulations.

Such mornings, what greets me outside is a clean-slate world — a world that my mind, freshly awake, doesn’t seem to recognize but would love to explore.

The mundane day, the normal (also ruled and regulated) view of tings is clamoring for control, for restoring views and banish freshness — can’t have all these virgin views on things. Still, the freshness lingers and refuses to relinquish control.

And this is a wonderful state of affairs.
