I woke up at four twenty
with echoes from the helicopter's steep valley waterfall resounding in my
memory.
Outside: the grasshoppers mating
Inside: an alter ego waiting for a short nicotine daydream as I cough up
phlegm and grin
I start feeling sleepy again, but it beats feeling tense.
I'd rather be the dreamer; my dreams seem to make sense.
The grasshoppers on the screen seem extraterrestrial things.
As an old man walks by, scratching his ear and shaking his head
at the whooping, hollering hoodlums running stop signs,
I cough rhymes with watery eyes.
