Sleepwalker's Ordinariness
Miraculousness without incident
garners suspicion.
As if the ordinary leaves something
out--of course it doesn't.
Nonevents are interested parties.
Which translate to cogito's media
circuis, bringing in a sleepwalker
for questioning.
Not quite with a suit jacket over their
head, but more like hapless self-escort.
The way they're put together doesn't
track, because they're not in love with
the heartache that puts it together.
A sleepwalker is only a sleepwalker if
at the end of the walk, they don't punch
the radio dial forgotten on full blast.
Which's to say all the innocuous detail
becomes a painful recap of creative
correspondence.
At every turn it's: What do you make of
it?
How not.
