Unless I Know My Name
David J Walker
Drugs that make me sleep
Without dreams
Are useless
Drugs that make me dream
Without sleep
Are the same
After all
I am here to name each
Sequenced dream
Frame by frame
A job I cannot do
Unless I know my name
FOOTLE

SILHOUETTE 1
in blue
for you
SILHOUETTE 2
statue
in blue
SILHOUETTE 3
arms wide
alive
SILHOUETTE 4
so still
until
SILHOUETTE 5
it fades
from view
wind
whispers
in the trees
this cold winter
day . . .
a
brown bird
is chirping
and twittering
loud . . .
a
snowflake
drifts and twirls
spinning down, down
down . . .
my
cold view
of winter
from my window
warm . . .
