insomnia #1
Have you ever slipped out of bed to watch the stars become clearer?
Study the grains of salt on the backdrop of the night sky.
That slowly comes into focus with every cup of coffee and cigarette
until they are lit up like Christmas lights twinkling against the inky curtain.
Have you ever reshaped and renamed all the constellations?
The gods and warriors have been molded into trees and teacups.
I have changed the night sky for you.
What more do you want?
I have started to do that,
I have started to do that, actually, on one or two occassions - reshaping and renaming the constellations, that is : )
This line, whether you intended or not, is telling of time and culture's change: The gods and warriors have been molded into trees and teacups.
Feel free to let me know if that was intended.
