Panama sunrise

sun peaks over the Pacific
in this sideways world
powerful heat arrows bore into me
sitting on balcony
of white high rise condo
on December 30th
wearing tan shorts and a brimmed hat 

ocean a band of shimmering grey in the distance
impossible to fathom
the endless horizon 

sun climbs steadily
light and heat to the world
and this body and soul on this balcony
soaking up this sideways peace
at year’s end
