Siamese

01.20.200510.29.1999I dreampt I built a world of feathers and bottle caps for us to rummage through, and we slept in gently heaving tunnels of birds-wings and ladybugs and hot wet air. I dreampt you were Siamese twins with one mouth latched to each of my breasts,sucking my nightmares through my nipples and you murmured in nightsick stereo around your grotesque mouthfulls, "now isn't that better?" but I could see my terror turning evil filling up the blank spots around the pupils of your eyes and just as I was sure I was going to vomit you moaned in a breathy, full tummy sort of way and I felt my bones falling dryly together and my last thought was the realization that all this time, the only thing that had been filling me up was nightmares.
