Frequently, when I’m falling asleep or when words wake me in the middle of the night (and it’s really good stuff, sometimes), I think I’ll remember this really good stuff, because it’s reallygood. Ha. Never happens.
I’ve learned that I have to get up and write this stuff down. The first stanza of “I do not sing of you” is about this lack of sleep process:
my pillow and I are stuck in sleep
when words begin to gather
they yearn to be you, so I write them down
else forevermore they’ll be gone
