One Cracked Egg

Nothing separates at 3:21 AM,
everything runs together,
an egg with a broken yolk,
body and brain refusing rest,
wander like a phantom,
walking on egg shells through
a relentless, ticking house.
Two more hours and the
alarm will bring a new day
to this day without end
and the two will become one
cracked egg with a double yoke,
plowing the fields of time
together, step by faithful step,
encouraged along by the crack
of the plowman’s whip.
