********

even though i hear him

talking to me of dreams --

today i cannot participate. 

today my eyes burn

and my bones ache. 

i am supposed to be 

present and active

but i cannot. 

i just cannot. 

today i kick my way through all the 

shoulds and coulds

that are piling up on the floor at my boots

and go to the couch

where i lay my bones

and allow them to sink into be.
