August, 2003

so early it seems

is

dreams

my body
so disinterest ed
in waking up
tears stream down my face in protest

I'm glad it's spoken it's peace
now, I can ignore it
righteously

oh yeah,
take that
it says
as I'm jammed with pain
emanating
from temples
like an emergency radio test

I'm lost in the sound
feel
of my body
the rawness of its' reaction
awe inspiring

when the hiccups arrive
adding their
own editorial
by way of disruptive
ness

I'm at my end

struggling
so much harder
this hour so much more intense
my body

SO LOUD

remind me to sleep at this hour …
