Asleep kid awake
Shutter
leafless tree
dance of words
leaves can teeter away
each desired step
a car
to drive everyone away
we made a wish
a shovel in a hole
once hid like my friends did
who never left home
those faces
soft in the mind
look at me as old
the coarse you take
is to put it all away
your asleep kid awake
you wrestle a snake
to death with you you say
happy birthday with
fangs in your flesh
and your
new face
half to death
you scared the dream away
some long ago trip
a person you were
that same wish
to be what you find
a face mirror’d
outside you no longer fit.
