Sleep Apnea
Every night I study ellipses.
Deathmask caster come
for this ekphrasis,
or at least stay for the company
and practice. Being kicked
out of a lover's bed
to wake into a dream
of wallowing in the River Ouse.
The siren sings, "Woolf,
I could’ve held you
instead of these three
stones in your overcoat pockets."
