I thought he was me
- this boy I was talking to -
he bore an emotional similarity
to someone I used to be

but then I thought I was mistaken
having put all my belief
in only one place, so I held my hands up,
to my eyes, but the holes in the palms
blew away my disguise, and I...

I couldn't think anymore


just as the world was turning
-letters gliding from the screen-
all of a sudden,

nothing.

And then, out of the dream.
