I ate the sun

A poem to start the day

Bepoke illustration created by the author by friend and collaborator Luke Skinner

I heard the rain had stopped and left my toast beside the bed. My feet took me outside; I ate the sun to break my fast, instead. Dawn’s vapour rose to bathe my legs as I waded through the wheat. I drank the dew and thought of you; reminded, that I need to eat.
