Dream Logic

Dream Logic 

I’m made of concentric circles
bloody feet and rubber cement 
my touch is rusty 
a doorknob covered with
flypaper
I climb out of one hole
stumble into another 
all fall
no impact yet
I breathe easy down here
but the bluetooth connection 
turned rotten 
that rectangle swallowed
most of my thigh  
doesn’t bother me any  
if the mud in my lungs 
ever gets to be too much 
I’ll drop my uniform off 
at the local seamstress 
word on the street is 
there’s nothing 
she can’t fix

Can't Float Forever
