Carpet Shadows

Carpet Shadows

A Poem by Lesley Wood
"

My eyes swim in the carpet shadows

"

 

 

Dream Catcher’s Staring feathers
Intimidate me, and you are
Sleeping my dream.
Opaque scratches, bumps
And crashes
Stop
When the lights go on.
Bulb-light kisses my hair,
And heavy lids dream to close
But my eyes swim in the carpet shadows.

Well your insomnia's a great inspiration! I'm sorry if I sound insensitive. But I loved this.
