Dream 23

how in the final act I circle the house

Chris at my side, or is she leading? am I

leading? we, no, I, need to put

something to rights, replace something

displaced while up the hill in front of us

great yellow machines scrape & shovel

growling while neighbors carp at the

early morning clamor, no place to park

what reconstruction have I commanded?

how have I come to live at the bottom of

this steep slope where Chris & I flounder

where suddenly Rich, my old dear friend

steps from a car, approaches all at ease

leans in, bewilders me with a kiss
