DREAMS

I am awake
yet dreaming

sleepwalking
into
the
waves


~2~

SLOW FADE

Roses slowly become
as paper

Would that their
scent was
as ink


~3~

HAPPY MEAL

The child has a collection
of Happy Meal cups

Would throwing them out
make him sad?

I imagine that they
are always
half full...

HOLD ON

He holds on
to his many delusions

Reality slips
through
his
fingers


~5~

Grace is a free gift
paid for
by

DEATH
