Cherries In the Attic
These dreams, always gnawing and cold.
So fleet and free like a rabid mountain stream.
I'm always pursued, then overrun.
Tormented and torn to tidbits.
Bitten on the neck by death.
A lone glass cherry left to die.
At the bottom of a black goblet night.
The sun usually arrives on time.
Gleaning blackness and rabbit screams.
From this cherry-stained attic of a dream.
