Sleep Thinking

"Consciousness is only one way of thinking. It is fallible."


The vagueness of day hammered out
with a good night's sleep,
I thought over you in a dream -
nothing meaningless, mind you.
It was all metaphor and portent,
we walked down Freud's Royal Road,
my heart and mind racing one another,
electric passion, chemical attraction -
nothing I can sort out when
sunrise chases sunset.

How to explain, how do I approach or
broach the subject with you?
I will not stall, but leave this matter to
resolution in the calm disturbance
of unconscious wandering.


"Let me sleep on that."
