254: My eyes close in the middle of this poem/sleep deprived the motion...

DateFriday, May 13, 2011 at 2:44AM

My eyes close in the middle of this poem

 

sleep deprived the motion

of the bus rocking me to sleep

 

words

          leak into my head

and I open my eyes to

write them down

 

inspiration and sleep are playing tag with my consciousness

 

(bus) bumping through the

Sacramento Valley (with)

flowers under dormant nut trees

 

O! to be a nut tree:

           still asleep

           with yellow flowers between my toes
