A PATCHWORK QUILT
A PATCHWORK QUILT
I REMEMBER A PATCHWORK QUILT
THAT WAS NAVY UNDERNEATH
I REMEMBER HOW SOFT IT FELT
AND HOW SOUNDLY I WOULD SLEEP
I REMEMBER ONCE FLOATING ABOVE
WATCHING MYSELF SLEEP
AS SOON AS MY FINGERS STARTED TO RUB
THE QUILT I MADE THE QUANTUM LEAP
BACK SAFE AND SOUND
NO ONE AROUND
TO WITNESS THE STRANGE SENSATION
BUT I AM SURE IT WASN'T MY IMAGINATION
