The time I’ve spent
Loitering over the areas of my deficiency
The time I’ve spent
Loitering over the areas of my deficiency
The time I’ve spent
It’s cold
Barely freezing temperature
Because the bodies Lain next to me
Are all ghosts
-But one
Of my few
Invariable truths
Locked in
Down within my closet
Lay skeletons
Bones of a past
Forgotten
In order to last
Cavities
In the deep
Frightening
Solitude
Of another night
Shine moist
Miracles
Light
Bright
In the slightest
Of all whimsical
So laughable
And I’m utterly free
In the belly of my dream
Until
I wake
Weep
Un-answering
Rivers
Strewn on rocks
Shattered
Into rainfall
On my blanket
Drop
By drop
Between tiredness
Between egotistic dreams
And wakeful lonesomeness
They dry
Company
Is company
Even within dreams
Within animals that fetch and eat
For some
Animals fetched to eat
Warm milk sap
From mother
To child
If I were
Only to
Come home
