A bad seed sleeping
no immediate threat
but certain
to thrust your fist
through dirt again

no thought to life that rests above
no care to spirit it may disrupt

but sleeping

I am tired, too
enticed to remember
what I loved about you

you stir
I flinch

temptation vanishes

so that was you in my mirror...
Duncan...this reads like it feels to sleep alone ... even in the relief of it..there is the ache...dont I know.
Once again your gift for words of less sting like so much more.
