Reflecting Sleepless
October 25, 2012
Reclining sleeplessly, I stare
At shadows through the window
And at the reflection behind me
Indoors and outdoors
Becomes one picture
Like a dream world
The navy night sky
Has a delicate wallpaper pattern
Black grotesque tree monsters
Are prevented from coming nearer
By a piano barrier
Staring, it’s really pleasant
Cozy reflections,
Books in the sky,
Except for the growing tree figures,
I hope they can’t get through the window,
And gobble me if I sleep.
