Sundeath

I'm worked into today

Molded into a plot

Of sunlight and boredoms

Of standing ovations

Like rain upon my doorstep

Crashing to the rock bed

As I hide, in my book

In my little drawer

So cozy, so tight inside

I slipped the key down

Like an inchworm

Plying down a cobb-web corridor

I sleep, sneaking around

Hide and seek of the sun

He chuckles with creaking pleasure

He cannot see me, or find a paw print clue

My drawer is locked up tight

With nobody inside

To touch me, to sneak behind my mind

Like a dilly dallying grandfather clock

Standing at stiff atention, nosey and biting

In a clay plot, bleating away for me

Oh, when will tonight arrive?
