(i'm afraid of
sleeping now)
last night i dreamed
the warm white church
walls were all painted
army green
and the kids were
wearing orange jumpsuits
as the youth leaders
screamed orders
(flashbacks to
calisthenics and
lock-ins that i
usually skipped)*
and i was
scared
so i hid
but they
found me and
i was suspended
i woke up wishing
for my sleep back.
