Here's a new snap. It's a real snap: ie writing now. I think all this fior
stuff woke us up, but it's getting boring now.
So. Do snaps have a title?
Night so short
Night so short in summer
in a northern latitude
we sleep with the curtain closed
to keep the sun from waking us at four
as it sails over the north east horizon and the hills
heading straight for a rain cloud
that has dampened the earth and gone
before we start our routine day
rubbing our eyes awake
to be sure we have missed
the creatures of darkness.
