Twilight
Twilight, a magic nook,
…, well, two really;
well OK, … many but two each day;
that special period that divides night and day and day and night and sometimes makes me feel that anything is possible; reminds me of the divide between primordial chaos and order imposed by who knows what or why (though many claim to have absolute knowledge of both): twilight, perhaps a space between the living and those beyond, a twice daily hint of Halloween.
Why is it we associate twilight with endings and not beginnings? Isn’t it both? The harbinger of both dawn and dusk?
I wonder if twilight and dusk are lovers and how they feel about dawn?
Twilight, a magic nook…
