My Bedroom Slippers

my bedroom slippers

are the rightful keepers

of the steps I take

thinking around

about the choices I make

 

I turn on the lights

I sit on the couch

and wait for the hour

when the nocturne train

comes to take me away

 

and the couch is a bench

the living room a station

and I know that I’m going

where thoughts stay afloat

in the floating nation

 

my bedroom sleepers

are the rightful keepers

of the steps I took

dreaming around

the Neverland

of

Captain Hook
