in the dream after
the dream that is just before
waking, a buffet

with no lines, waiting for you
to return from the restroom

there is a new clock

there is a new clock
in our living room, ticking,
ticking, ticking – you

are halfway around the world,
sleeping so soundly, clockless

towards evening,
minutes corrode,
form crevices the
size of dreams –
it takes some kind

through with
all of your

traffic, waiting
