Rollercoaster

I had a dream

the ghost of you

was so practical

its surreal

a rollercoaster

you sitting at the way back

all together

Me at the front

my back turned

one pointed on

what lay ahead

I heard you say

'none of us are as far forward as we think we are"

My body is set alight

a sacred rite

tell me what all these signs are about

I am so tired of my gracelessness

all these darkest moments

it is always like this before the light

cracks through
