I know I’m wilting with how
Long my eyes are open, night and day
I hang on the distant promises that retreat
Farther and farther away because life has
Doubled from twelve hours
To twenty four
Time has expanded, torture prolonged,
My spirit desires to do something else and it prompts me to dream but
Inevitably I go back to work at four o’ clock in the morning
It means the divine’s contraction at the moment of creation
Like my soul’s compression
Me and my body so divides
