Poem To the Night

(I get familiar with the late night hours
the late night hours
the late night hours)

I wrap the night around me like a shawl to welcome home
Celebrate the absent judgements in defiance of the throne
All that was the cage of expectations left behind I'm freed
From the hours of persuasion that belong to daylight's greed.

(I get familiar with the late night hours
the late night hours
the late night hours)
