Challenging the skies,
poking at pillows of puff—
human ambitions.

Challenging the skies,
poking at pillows of puff—
human ambitions.

Sniping away sleep,
not a shadow of remorse—
espresso, clean shot.

Hidden in plain sight,
as the middle child, ignored,
blossom in a bush.

They shine, they darken—
a face for every season;
facades and humans.

One step at a time,
climbing fortune-studded stairs—
momentary joy.
