half awake

i become the world at the kitchen table

i can listen to a great song and know i wrote it.

be the feathers on the wings of birds

they fly by and i am the wind.

i can be the green in the leaves 

i can be the brick of the chimney 

and the smoke inside it.

i am the breakfast on the table 

which fills you up

the coffee which warms you

i can be the time between our eyes and our gaze

i can be the spider and the web.
