NEVER FALL ASLEEP IN BATHTUBS
I assured myself;
that I would never again daydream
about falling asleep in bathtubs.
that I would marginalize
measurements;
croonings and rattlings.
that I would desanctify
that matrimony,
and shovel-- within my chest
and throw them ruggedly upon my back...
bored, I drag about
these overstuffed suitcases,
laden with stickers
and stains
from brightly lit slums.
and i must keep reminding
myself;
that i'll need a lifeboat to save me.
when i fall asleep next time.
