Kit Kelen #674 - coaxed


674
coaxed
(jetlag series)

into the dark
where

be tree
be sea
go root first, flow

call to
answer the call

under the radar
take flak
that's waking

you shape yourself
to look like sleep
but that's not how it comes

ye know not the hour
don't look
it never helps

to love
the dark
of past enfolding

be sung
and hang a hat here

there isn't a door
but you go in

a lot of lying flat
lie still
top blanket is the dark

world turns
and this is how you've come
so far

sink
lift
and drift

this dark
is too well lit

but toe to chin
catch at the strangeness still

it means...
but knowing is eyes wide

a little pill
another

last call for
you're the only passenger

there isn't a border
but you cross

world turns
till I am here
I'm home

the dream is waiting
go

all this scribble
in the morning vanished

it's you
who was
set down
