Awake

Outside a dog roams the streets the city is awake no one is asleep He is a creature of the night biting the men and women who refuse to dream love is not a dream I dream her to awake and seek me to find me on the moist earth Our love is not a dream her kisses exist her tender brown flesh exists her kisses linger in my mouth One day soon we will ride horses into the sunset of orange sky take refuge along side the sea I am awake my bed a silent boat in landscape of open eyes moss grows on my ceiling Creatures of the night prowl and sniff fire hydrants and street corners there is no sleep The night owl calls moon is climbing through the sky I feel her warm love like the moon in my arms...
