Empire of Dreams

Daycare Nation · 07.09.2006, 11:28 PM

On the first page of my dreambook
It's always evening
In an occupied country.
Hour before the curfew.
A small provincial city.
The houses all dark.
The store-fronts gutted.

I am on a street corner
Where I shouldn't be.
Alone and coatless
I have gone out to look
For a black dog who answers to my whistle.
I have a kind of halloween mask
Which I am afraid to put on.

I just googled "corpse," because posting on this forum is like necrophilia. The poem is by Charles Simic.

I was just under the impression that the third time you come up with the same joke, it must be refreshingly quick. It's a compliment if you really think about it.
