daybreak,
i awaken with my mind full of stars,
sunlight through the curtain slit,
still alive.
all remnants of dream,
begin to dissipate,
sauntering into life yet another day,
to place feet on solid ground,
is to commit to it.
to stand unclothed before it,
is to admit,
i am flesh and blood,
with full knowledge of being,
naked.
i dress and become invisible,
like the others,
suited, booted, painted and scented,
like a wildflower,
dressed in the costume of a rose.
i am someone,
posing as me.
night arrives and far from my cares I travel,
closer to truth I become.
human nature
