How do you sleep?
Do you hold yourself in your own arms and say you are the world?
Do you count children falling as others count sheep leaping?
Do you roll in the dark to hold someone who isn’t there? What about the names of the dead? Do you fear that sound is a boot sole on your door?
Do you hear thunder and think of fire?
Do you hear the moon running out like a mother’s milk in the streets?
Or is it only the moon to you?
Does the birdsong in the morning
hurt you, even a little? Does love? Does wonder?
Do you remember yourself as a child crouching in the dark? Do you remember?
Do you wake in the morning and cradle your children and say home, home sweet home? Do you wake?
Do you look into their faces?
Do you wake? Do you say their names?
