Serotonin dreamscapes
She languishes through endless Friday evenings
The space between the wan light of dusk and the 3 am sky

Elongating, stretching into nostalgia
Rain recalls the smell of his sheets
Drags its thin fingers across the small of her back

Was it always like this?
The red tinged periphery of vision
The seduction of paper-thin steel

It’s 4:15 again
The film of gin and soggy cigarettes
Portend that yellow, jeering dawn will soon stir from her fitful slumber
