DO YOU REALIZE THAT THIS IS AN ILLUSION?

by thomas p. levy

 

What I am saying is something similar to what I think, except that as I push these words through the colander
of my mouth something changes in the way that you change when you leave in the morning.

 

I watch this, your suffering, my surface-tension, I’m talking and you sleep, as if sleeping were the same as
swimming and we were treading in a pool of celery root.
