Jeltje Fanoy #22 Th tram-bridge

A deafening, blinding dream


th tram-bridge,
the street lights on top,
the lights on a speeding tram,
below, the headlights of cars


and the overwhelming urge
to sleep thru th day,
and all night,
as if that's what's required


Dreams were meant to heal
th fissured tissue of my heart,


no surgery deemed necessary
