Today is different. Somehow. What happened. What changed. Did the rain fall differently this morning than it has on any other. Or not. Did the sun find a mirror in the apartment across the way--that never seems to catch the sun. Did a cloud cover the ground, instead of the sky it usually grazes. Did a child wake up with no sound in his throat. Was the moon still in sight for us to see. What pinched my consciousness and rustled a dream. What dredged up things that have lain dormant for so many years. What didn't let them lie, anymore. What silver of light caught my eye this early morning and pulled me back to this.
