This is the morning

today is the day

This is the morning, I realize.
Today is the day
that
I can climb past 
the sins of my past.
That
I can use the same set of letters
rearranged 
to simply, elegantly
rearrange my ideas,
particularly of who I am. 
That’s the faucet that keeps running, 
the torrent of never-ending
tomorrows 
and one days
that I’ve built my dreams upon. 
Today is the day 
I can wash all of that away 
and not call 911 again. 
There is no need 
to claw through the mud 
for survivors. 
All that remains:
this morning
this moment, 
the same set of letters
to rearrange.

April 20th is a palindrome, if you write the date in the US way.

Enjoy! Also, it’s Earth Day!
