The dream has ended
even while a nightware toward the end, at least it was something.
This is final, irrevocable.
It is a death of a dream, a frienship, the final hope
for a home to share
for a heart to share.
To wake from detritus of dream, from the lower astral
and see your lover designate
as a snarly sleazy dirtbag
just as your daughter warned you:
I feel a bit dirty
and sad
and mad.
I saved the peyote so long
it had children.
The peyote we were to share.
The burgoing lavendar entrance
to my home
a reminder.
The special sheets of soft denim I bought for his bedroom
I sit like a mother in the nursery of a child
she has just lost.
Neverhaving known the child
doesn't make it less painful.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
