LOST

LOST

perhaps I also
fell out of the sky

in my Russian-doll
dream within a dream
I am lost at every level

my brain is stripped of
roadmaps, my mind of
every connection
between
time and place

there was a house to which
everybody waa heading
but it was
where they were meeting
every dead
member of my
extended family and
some old
friends and lovers
alomg for the ride

but I was
unwelcome
out of place

and so wandered off woke up
lost yet again
at a higher lower level

the Universe so multi-
dimensional
in the darkness
of its dreams

perhaps it is all
island; a forever crash and burn
