Rumbling In the Night

Rumblings in the night I was trying to write the words on the screen turned into spatter of blood, darkness descended A woollen mass pressing me down, I screamed Of fear and my brother came and laid beside me. A young woman. who had been thrown out of her? Uncle’s house came with a tray of bacon & eggs I grabbed a piece of bacon, but the woman said It was not for me but my brother because He had been dead for many years and therefore Must be hungry. I went into a Chinese restaurant where the owner Shouted “table for one” I don’t want a table like To see the men” no need he said it is all the same With different sauces “Table for one!” I couldn’t find my way out; there were many doors leading into coolers where cooks had committed Suicide in memory of Anthony Bourdon. Finally, I found a door out the led me to freedom Where nature was unworldly and my brother Said: did you know if you are on a spacecraft and Pass all the planets behind you. The emptiness Will turn into a purple fog and before you know it Will you be back to your living room? Table for one, the owner of the Chinese shouted.
