Sleep comes like a tide.
Evenings at home, we drift off
heads back, mouths open.
On distant shores

Sleep comes like a tide.
Evenings at home, we drift off
heads back, mouths open.
Dressing room mirror
replaced by funhouse looking
glass. Not me in there.
Crashed. Met Tailies. Then
Others. Hatch blew up. Kate caged.
Got Lost about there.
Reality makes
me sick. Going through laugh track
cop show withdrawal.
Going to New York
City. I’ve bought black clothing,
black low-heeled shoes.
Speed-viewing seasons
one through three’s like life in the
hatch. Push the button.
Disappointment like
a kidney punch makes it hard
to smile through the pain.
He had a dream but
his murder was our nightmare.
It’s time to wake up.
Never read the play
before you see it performed.
There’s too much drama.
Cleaning is like con-
fession. You’re surprised by dirt
under the surface.
