my bedroom floor just after 8 on a Wednesday evening (Sweat as Communication)
I have seen
a bear bark white honey
and lost
in a fit of giggles
sage advice granted.
I've been told
I flop. Too
submerged to know, me
carrying on without me.
I remember
dowelling fanning out the fabric of existence
rotating from my fulcrum
ceaselessly, holding
colours of toys,
retro and for a wall
in my head.
Yellow? brown? orange? Blue?
Ceaseless
I roll and chase the real I want.
Just pushing it away
just panicking.
Then
a friend, down, now up,
or at least at the stairs' other end,
watching from the fan.
And I know everyone will be
slowly
all right.
Pillow
Bed
Sweat as communication
returns to my brain
first, and mouth
slowly.
I am searching
for sight in everything
even as revelation drifts away
and fades out.
Lost, but for a poem,
so something.
