waking


every day
behind the
multitudinous bulk of activity
the contractions of muscle
the movements which shape
what you are wearing and
the taste left behind
in your mouth and even
the words with which you swallow
the world around you

behind this lies
in a simple moment
not too long ago
the infinitesimally sticky
parting of your eyelids

that first sight
tearing the fabric
of your non-being
