Something Glowing

Indefinite and definitely dreamed about,

there's something

in my closet, under my bed, but mostly

outside my window.

There's something making noise.

Some terrible kaleidoskull

that ever so gently destroys

the minds of those who believe it.

And though I can't quite perceive it,

I can tell it's there

by the way it's not quite there.

Now there's a lightbulb at the bottom of the sea

that's glowing.

It's like sunlight, the upside-downness of it...

It's saying something.

There's something making light.

No sun, no moon, no weather balloon,

but something purely of the night.

Can't say I know what is in it,

or count the beats per minute.

But I know there's more

washing up upon the shore.

Indefinite and definitely dreamed about,

there's something.

something glowing

something glowing

something glowing

In my closet, under my bed, but mostly

outside my window.

something glowing

something glowing

something glowing

There's something making noise.

Some terrible kaleidoskull

that ever so gently destroys

the minds of those who believe it.

And though I can't quite perceive it,

I can tell it's there

by the way it's not quite there.
