February 6...early in the morning

A fin! A pink fin!
Slowly moves right to left
Across the sky streaked
with morning light.
The below zero cold
so bold it keeps me
behind my front door...
standing between me
and the orgasm of the sunrise...
condom-like protection
against the harmful effects
of the sperm whales in the sky.

Now it's turned into a pink tornado
rising out of the mountain
surrounded by blue sky...
now dissipating to play with the others.
My eyes still focused upward
won't dwell on the ten below below...
while in the sky
the parade of clouds and colors pass by.
The art deco colors defy the spectrum
all curves and cutouts
never before seen colors.

The show only for me
and the others deemed worthy
or just plain lucky...
to see this glorious morning Godshow for free.
