I had a dream of you last night,
I’ve been doing that.
I woke up wet
Drenched in sweat; 4:56
At the sound of someone saying
you were here.
And I don’t know why it happened
But I rumbled out of bed
Babe, I padded down the hall
Hair in my face; I couldn’t see ****
The night with its mouth shut, I paced like
Someone was listening
thinking you’d just be in my living room
As your warmth never left my chair
But your prints long left my window
So I stumbled back to home
And back in bed, the sheets were metal
I couldn’t follow anyone
Morning leaked in; light burned where you weren’t
The TV taunted me with choices;
Illusory and fascinating
With the muffled, muted sound of some
Televangelist rat who preached
Of God’s prosperity
Sold between commercials for casinos
As life went on outside my window
What you said becoming all I think of
Love gives you hope and then revokes it
