Bones

the monstrous head
coming alive
and it felt justified
enjoying time in bed
before coffee or tea
with a piece of small toast
this i find i like the most
i hadn't had a bite since mid-June
around noon
or was it closer to four
hard to see from the floor
when you said
"I think I'm dead!"
and i had to agree
it wasn't me.
the monstrous head
came round and round
finding no up side or down
in the padded bed
i was hoping to be taught
not caught
patiently cooked a stew
pointing a finger at you
so full of bones
fingerprints without moans.
