poem - the barrenness of dawn
I am summoned to see someone immediately!
He is angry for being inconvenienced
and demands
swift resolution.
Through a third party he is told I will not see or speak with him until tomorrow.
He walked away content.
In a dream
I am served another Summons.
It seems I've been in receipt of a series of pleasant distractions
whilst asleep
I’m told: I ought to have known that these distractions came with a fee
I become distraught
not knowing in what manner
nor what medium
I am to pay for these fleeting pleasures.
The process server smiles.
"You'll figure it out"
Next to me
a large cat
rests contented
Bathing while abed.
