I

-

I hear the rats run
in the walls like water
through a tree. My blood

-

thickens. As I dream
the masturbation dream
the shelf above my bed

-

falls covering me in
dirt and decaying beetles.
I see my reflection is headless.

-

II

-

When the waves stop
and the moon grins down
to overtake me: the car

-

ran up the street that night
when you were nearly
molested in your neighbor’s house:

-

is this why we don’t have
neighbors? For this the trees
rot only for us?

-
-
-

III

-

I woke screaming and you
came to sit next to me. I felt
my eyes were open too wide

-

that I could not shut them
from the horror movie sitting
on your lap in the easy chair

-

in the dream the other dream
in the living room under
the tree. Why do I feel guilty?

-
-
-

IV

-

I wake up in a pool of water
closed over me like an eyelid.
There is no longer comfort

-

in staring at the ceiling.
Its pitch blackness beckons
into a future of blankness.

-

My body lay still quaking.
My mind is chained fast
to the beating of my heart.

-

V

-

I sit up slowly creaking.
I find myself alone buried
in an ocean. Far off

-

there is an eagle flying
toward me. She lands on
my knee and lays an egg.

-

I think not this again
something I’ve never
thought in my life.

-

VI

-

I think not this again
something I’ve never
thought in my life. Not

-

after losing my car keys
in the easy chair. Not after
scratching myself on a branch.

-

Not after finding the thing
in your dresser drawer that
night. I remember you suddenly.

-
-
-

VII

-

You run through me
like rats
down an alley.
You are in my blood.

-

You scared me once
remember? Jumped out
of the bathroom door.

-

I fell screaming onto
the linoleum. Did you
apologize? Did you need to?

-
-
-

VIII

-

The ocean that surrounds me
creaks like a rocking
cradle. Your face bright

-

as the moon at eclipse
and as red. Low song
my tide stretching

-

to the horizon. Ripples
on the surface belie
something bigger beneath.

-
-
-

IX

-

In bed I am alone for
the only time. In bed
I am a grown man.

-

Below the blankets I
know you for who you are.
In bed I see your face

-

pressed against the window.
I look out and see you
and I am not afraid.
