Shoe


I take a nap every day
I set a timer on my phone for 25 minutes
I fight to keep my eyes closed at first
Sometimes I'm so tired I forget to breathe
A mess of images
Today the song You & Me by Goldie
Then I slip into the shoe of my body
Like a rock falling to the bottom of a river
And time slows down infinitely
Until the alarm goes off with the sound of crickets
