      sleep-walking blues

      while Creation has placed us everywhere around ourselves

      sleeping hearts have invaded the passage

      they are awake from the fingers on up

      their feet are cold,

      covered to keep them from touching

      the sacred earth

      sleepwalker’s think their dream is the center
