Requiem Before a Dream
Just…before…sleep
lying here
cottonpressonnakedflesh
before I fall.
Eyes
closed, someone staring
back from the inside . . .
it’s me.
Eve in
recognition of her Confinement.
Clothes pins, attach floppy disks
to opaque, wind-blown curtains
In between wake and slumber
See-Through, inside out eyelids,
I could fall...but don’t.
Quick catch, body spasm
feetattach
Understanding, rest,
Dream
