nightcap

dreams are slippery
some stroke my palm and fall like tears
others are trembling on my fingertips

a sitting book of echoes and messages
ghost-knocks
the lark of it
just for the hell of image flicker

open the clasp
the bold green nightcap
velvety as a cat

lit up with fears
or trembling you are still
wild and dark, a fish without water

our dreamworld songs
all the salt of tears in bold green bottles
taken little sips nightly
