Bring branch to fire
dring
drang
“cock a doodle do”
awake on the Other side
dawn break too
bring a branch to fire
& “Wail”
bring a pail
to sound
& fill
ding
drang
earliest bell, chimes blue
blurred lines meld
& which side of the mesh?
to look through to see which other side
pop! button...snooze pop!
ten dream scenes more
break dawn dance
Over there
Here
a drop in water
is of water
&
surface ripples not.
up hardwood stairs
chant begins
tee-wah-oh-so-la-me
wen- fo-lo-see-da
wen-fo-lo-cee-day
dring
drang
bring brang branch to fire.
What a wicked poem! I love the sounds, shapes, and funny fury that you bring to life in this bit. I'm sorry you had to wake up.

DeleteOoh! Hearing Tom Waits instrumentation with this. Really love stanza 1's rhyme/rhythm.
