Sleeping Giants

 

Sleeping Giants 

At the end of the bed

Understandings

And 

Covers

Mud and Bone

Morning light

Brings 

This Bird’s song 

Breathe 

Breakfast 

Before the day 

Truly 

And 

Unruly 

Begins

To begin

Rested

In the cupcake appetizer 

And arrested 

In the widths 

And breadths

Of 

Heavy Blankets 

Of notions 

Commotions 

And held back emotions 

I sit

On memory 

Foam
