caught in between
awake and a sleep,
my body was stuck
and from my window pulsed a warm
glowing scarlet light
heard a baby cry again
felt a dog breathe on my chest
as i prepare to pinch stubborn fingertips
swore something pulled my legs up to the other arm rest
dear former tenant, leave
me to sleep here with my wife
we mean no harm; go back
to the other side
brittle woman, floating in the air,
let me breathe again,
let my knuckles bend
and cast my voice back into my throat
