Onset of Brightness

American flag clad,
National headlining boy
Dancing across the summer grass
Five months from now.

Arise,
Infinite summer, 
Limited grace upon age.
Life lights lingers lovely and lonely;
All together, all in the dark.

Be brave and take care,
For the odds are on your waking.
Don't take the sucker's bet
Of selling yourself short;
You're the only horse you've got in the race.

How brave can you prove to be?
How scared are you tonight?
The world is supposed to end every night,
Your feet meet the floor the next day anyways.

Crow Call (Near the River) - Keith Jacobshagen
