just lay it out there
as if life is a bed of lessons
some you sleep on
others you roust
some you seduce
time placidly smiles,
clock-face overlooking
yes, there is a time for a wash
a clean spread of sheets
prop-ups from pillows
dialogues in overrides
too many or too few of covers
too hard or too soft a feel
want for bigger bed
medical foam over coils
headboards and canopies
life is the spread
for now, just rollover
as if in a philosophic snooze . . .
