The Personal Space of Norman Milliken « Poetry «
morning
morning
I lie motionless
along sleep’s edge
looking
for one more dream
before the day
smothers me
along sleep’s edge
looking
for one more dream
before the day
smothers me
Beautifulwarrior on Jul. 17 2008 edit · delete I don't believe this could have been improved with one more word. It perfectly describes many mornings for me, as well. Surely, we long for one more dream, and our days feel smothering for different reasons...but I wonder how similar the dreams we seek might be?
