I
Exiting dreams,
Hypnos gives way to Eos
II
Helios takes baton,
illuminating world
III
Eyes straining to discern,
one functioning,
limited sight,
endless vision
IV
Days in life,
currents in river,
leaving patterns,
revealing nuggets
V
Optimism,
fruit of balanced longevity,
cultivated at every turn,
fermenting life
VI
Life,
as function of travel,
feeding thirst and horizon
VII
Venue of residence,
shifting target
VIII
Assymetrical—
Critical thinking: thinking (?)
Well-read, informed: average ectoplasm
IX
Delenda est,
puppeteers rule;
Salt on earth,
mental wounds
X
Amorem et odium;
Colosseum, άρτος και θέαμα,
facade of civilized fair play
XI
Reaffirmation,
memories,
friendships,
wind in the sails
XII
Reflection,
past,
present,
pillars of foundation,
offspring bringing smile
to faces
