After A Day

After a day of atonement we’re freed of all guilt we’d 

believe came to pass, tho we are refused seeing any 

change - its as if it is meant that way; and yet today 

suggests it asked the wrong question delayed in this 

trance of penitence from whatever came to be truely 

the view we’d have wanted to see while we pursued 

that actuality which in our dream we’d believed was 

the way of being which embraces all of this frugality 

But here we are again - and dusk dims the scenery I 

agree hasn’t distanced itself from where we were at, 

and I know we are spared that form of reality; so let 

it be really a vista we’ll accept as being where we’re 

meant to express our dreams, and there I sleep well 

in a freedom of truth we let be our material actuality
