Split-rail Pilot, engineering sage

Our Father, The Man Upstairs,
Morning Gardener, Cigar-smoking Pilot-provider, Evening Farmer.
My dad, the man downstairs,
night inventor, stove-stoking philosopher, twilight reader.
I could see him, Them,
Both The Same, different as daydream from day
One Life, always two persons
Different Inside/out
Never duplicitous downstairs or Up,
Always
About the Creator
