late night experiments
make work hard
and naps easy
seafoam green discs
slip from under my skin
and into my room shimmering,spinning
flickering like an old projector
i wrapped myself in matts warm down
and you talked about detox,massages,lesbians,court dates
your voice fast, strong, needing something
the cartoon lines blown out and blurry
rolling my eyes to the sky
i set my alarm to four hours from now
anticipate a difficult and glorious shower
and drink down my tap
you will later take me
to draw circles of sleep
around tired eyelids
