sleep funny
I overslept on the first of September
like if Sunday were a month
summer's embers backward bending
I dreamt of the light changing and how the missing's never-ending
for once not the destiny I prolong under the lazy legs of my afternoon long
not the words I say and always write forever wrong
except I'm still writing this in in October
as the world gets older and marigolder
I ask what's the difference between sad and sober
what's the win in November when I'm lost
when I'm cost
and feel love is so epically star-crossed
On the altar of a face I never lost I lay alms
open my arms and beg my palms read the same as the stars
