A mothering blackness

My Picture: Mahjong in Taiyuan.

Five in the morning,
drinking till the sun comes up.
Unable to slow down,
a single raindrop holding on for life….

I remember a dazed starling,
blue wings and orange breasts.
An iridescent creature,
beating a course to an open space.
A red-haired pterippus,
untouched, unclaimed territory.

Now, there is blue and grey……
no one really won.
A festive devotion paid per use,
chances to hang around some familiar things.
