Still Life




Slumber awash in adventure
quickening pulse
colors flash
redgreybrown blur

I hurl through time
space compressed
unmoored
from the Cartesian plane

Memory my vessel
lurches fore and aft
phantasmagoric fog
o’er the sea

Loosed from gravity
capricious waves
unfurl paisley

Eyelids arise

Peace
startles me
awake

unfamiliar
crisp calm

I blink
breathe in
new light

still
bright still
life
