Diurnal Variation III

Today, being the 1st anniversary of my blog, it seems fitting to post the 3rd in a series on the theme of my very first post: Diurnal Variation.

dark becomes light
as day shifts to night

the brain’s body clock
only ticks after tock

circadian chimes
wrong rhythm in time

as night becomes day
light fades to grey

Diurnal Variation II

In sleep, unguarded,

the soul dives

into the dark pool,

bottom-feeds on nightmares,

does not surface

in time

for daybreak

Diurnal Variation

In the waking hour
fear floods in,
chokes hope’s power.

In the witching hour
hope sings out,
drowns fear’s clamour.
