Unmaking The Bed

Casting off the trap of sleep

Waking into waves and frames

Pulling off the night, slow, like tape

Unmaking the bed, the waves, the wake

Rising and falling, rising and falling

Rising and falling, unmaking my bed

Who will wake up clean, leaning in

Who will feel the night, and know it

Channeling the light, waking, glowing

Unmaking the bed, the waves, the wake

Rising and falling, rising and falling

Rising and falling, unmaking my bed

A levitating chest, the lapsed hours

And a rolling wheeze, a sweet sigh

As it tumbles in, the mind floats

Unmaking the bed, the waves, the wake

Rising and falling, rising and falling

Rising and falling, unmaking my bed
