Mind and memory,
can I forget myself
in the smoke, a thought bends
like light through a prism,
no matter what way it turns
it’s always different, my memory
filtering through, grasping to
keep my self separate from
my dreams. Lost.

Slid into heaven
Thanks to raven wings and bones
It is a dark room
Scattering of beads, thunder
I wake in the morn
