Careless Light

Pre-dawn reading
tip tap
Will transform
One story into two
forward toward
The dark magician
breeze booze
The quiet sorcery
subtitles subside
Fantasy is not
My favorite genre
batter flatter
Neither is the careless light
Ghosting the walls
amnesia ambrosia
Then the sun rises
mentor meteor
And the book opens
As if it could speak
