Forty Days
Forty nights
Into the desert I go, with a slivering moon’s call to contemplation — deep contemplation of the past, present and future holds.
Recalling a time when I didn’t know, before the time of knowing everything. Now for certain, without a doubt — knowing nothing, not even where I rest my head.

Tomorrow the second
Happy are we
