I take everything I've already figured out with me wherever I go
Mind like a moth-eaten blanket
Wind whistling through the holes
I wrap up in its wool every day
I walk, I drive, I say hi to the faces of the other parents
I will forget who they are but for now I know
And when the nights fall a dark spring opens
I dive entirely in to the holes in my sleeping mind
And I, I swim all night across a black ocean
Before day comes again
Standing beneath a sky of airplane noise
The sun on its wheel, turning me old
Warms the back of my head
Death caress
I look across the gulf
I have seen the billowy black
These hereditary perforated minds dream off
And then they don't come back
I'll climb through this torn wool mind hole in my knowing
To grandmother's house
