Dream me
into oblivion.
Take melatonin
And snap
me back
rubber band.
Take the
medicine
delivered from
the medicine man.
Wish I
could find
something to
believe in.
Emptiness,
frozen, freedom.
Sing to me
Sinatra.
Tell me
Heaven
is like
a dream
I can see
myself in.
Even if
blinded
by cold
light.
Even if
broken boned
and clammy
skinned.
Let me
see God,
whisper
to him,
Why did
you
give me
venom?
and wait
for him
to let
me in.
