Despair?
Or relief!!
Buried head, with arms
the earth above, with hands
the flowers on the grave
of all waking life, with body
curled snail-like and still.
What happens when you sleep too long?
Starting over and over,
each dream cycle so begins again,
and again, exhausting repeats
syndicated dullness
in the deepest reaches of the soul,
the theme song of nothing to do,
no reason to wake, no cause to rise
snail-like . so good, so true
