Analysis of Morning In Doubt



Riding into the moment
  with pen ablaze
  past-future on the hunt

Fear taking a seat
  across the fire
  begging for what it wants

The bugles blow
  all lights go out
   —twin enemies approach

Upon whose sleeves
  my heart is laid
  in doubt the morning cloaked

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)
