the Dream

Oh God!
This is

not what
I want.

I've roiled
in the

Oil-Font,
and came

out clean.


The impression
of cleanliness—

of the joy from
dirty things—this

advice is illicit. And
unsolicited.


Four nights now,
I've had this dream

of living plainly and
fulfilled. I've seen the

rise and fall of all
of this.

And been availed of
simple wants by

waking in my bed.
