~who shuts our eyes in calms of beastlike sleep. —John Balaban, "Riding Westward", Gift of Tongues
Spinning off self after self written April 20th, 2020
After a lifetime of being afraid to close my eyes for what demons might come while I sleep unable to defend myself
I ask who will protect us as we sleep unguarded from the terrors of the past?
I shuffle through selves like cards in a deck spinning off self after self searching for just one who can close their eyes in calms of beastlike sleep.
