Any word we ever say, or any action of the imagination never leaves us it is us and we become known for it. But there's boxes chalk full of new and shining prizes and we push them up around the old ones as we open them. and hope that the frenzied fire cat won't come to brush its tail along our face but it does just the same, he's a magic cat after all and torches all the new boxes, and we cry and we gasp and then we remember whats in the old box and we thank the fire cat and I rub his warm and purring chin. Because no one wants to forget and he knows this. So I tell him to come sleep at the end of my bed so I can start dreaming in the present tense. There's no reason I'm oversleeping |
