[transitions]
summer rolling in soon
mayday mirages
of a greater escape
on this saturday afternoon
tending the low vibe
of high noon
hanged amidst
the loved and
the lost
in cacophonous grandeur
spun
from the inside
out
tetherless and aloft
having all that is needed
from awakening to demise
for the days are enough
to keep the peace
and the nights are enough
to win the war.
