Writing Poems While Asleep
she dreams of fragrant sausage
spitting in the frying pan
broken-hearted
because she cannot eat it
another night she dreams
she is standing on her head
performing an ablution
in the nether regions
now she dreams of her kidnapped
therapist, ransom demanded
when not paid, he is returned
secrets are not
