Dream
I just woke up.
I’m going to grab breakfast.
Jumping over bones all over the floor.
But today, the moon is falling closer to me.
And-
Asteroids everywhere.
That pond in my yard used to not be there.
Muddy footprints on the walls.
I might drown under waterfalls.
I just woke up.
I just- I just-
Tuesday afternoon.
I’ll crawl downstairs sometime soon.
Or is it Thursday morning?
My alarm should have been a warning.
I just promised my mom that I would-
I just promised my mom that I would-
Just wake up.
I promise I will.
