I slept until 4pm today Dreaming of things the fingers of my memory Can only scrape at. Real life: Phone rings. Belly aches. Cat bites. Siren howls. Nothing matters. Dream life: Airport. Fog. You. Gone. Nothing matters. No. Rewind. Real life: Airport. Fog. You. Gone. Everything matters. “Don’t implode,” you said before I shut your mouth with my own. I disobeyed.

Sleepwalking
I slept until 4pm today Dreaming of things the fingers of my memory Can only scrape at. Real life: Phone rings. Belly aches. Cat bites. Siren howls. Nothing matters. Dream life: Airport. Fog. You. Gone. Nothing matters. No. Rewind. Real life: Airport. Fog. You. Gone. Everything matters. “Don’t implode,” you said before I shut your mouth with my own. I disobeyed.
