meandering lost
tossed from river to
raft
daft, insensible in
my bed, staring, waiting
thinking
too much of 
nothing
dreams in the shapes
of bowls bought in 
Mexico or feathers
picked from fallen
birds. my boat 
rocks again, like a 
cradle, this bed my
child-mind cries out. oh
for a little tenderness, a little 
love." but the river doesn't
answer, my bed-boat is still
comfortable and I pull the 
covers up and over my head
