Predawn
Poseidon rises
unfurls a blanket
fog, burying shore and sky
I awaken in a cloud,
set adrift
before feet
touch floor –
dream
within
a dream.

I awaken in a cloud,

before feet
touch floor –

But for the beating of heart –
a discordant rhythm –
I am obliterated by fog –
numbness of unanticipated loss
clouded by dreams misted over –
I await sun’s return….
