snapshot

here I am
snapshot
waking up

open one eye
stretch one leg
coming out of one fog
into another

as all the colors
rearrange themselves
to fit into their original slots

open both eyes
a table stares at me
a chair faces away

the table, the chair, the bed
become a triangle, turning and moving
floating away



listen to snapshot



and the chair says
we are taking you on a journey!
as the room opens to become sky

slow motion
I rise, taller than I expected,
take one step into space and watch the day
surround me
