Droolenophelia

Stalling asleep
dragged from my bed
a currency exchange of wet sheet rhetoric
begins flowing through my head

this isn't
really 
happening

chubby red devils
polygonal angels 

Gods and Goddesses
Playwrights and charlatans

What an event
taking place
here

this can't
really
be
happening

Fog rich terraformed formations
ferment within my grasp
yet still slip through my palms

Told you
this 
isn't
occurring

Sideway hill slide
I play it safe on clouds 
watch the feet make their way to the mountain

Play it safe from the clouds to the water below
play it safe

Eyeball flotation 
new hobby
realization
a thing of the past

This all happens before our very eyelids
I play it safe from the pillow
