Cleaning, then Going to Sleep and Dreaming

Killer whales in the flood
That fills the room, vacuum parts and mattress floating
Above mud;

I bluff them back;
No shame in mud now, I’m noting
Drawbacks,

It seems,
Having gloating
Dreams.

Killer whales in the flood—
No shame in dirt now—I’m noting
Dreams.
