Sleepwalking

a half-hearted version of me

emerges perpetually

into this long and winding corridor

through a deadbolt-laden heavy door

sleepwalking on the concrete

as i pass others so replete

with vigor and knowledge they've reaped

feeling very much in too deep

in this wishing well of dreams

perhaps more turbulent than is reality

when the only abnormality

would be if i thought it sanity

like a teacher teaching

or a pastor preaching
