my husband is sleeping, snoring a few minutes ago he awoke as I was printing out a letter to a Christian man in power who is opposed to gay marriage my husband tells me that he likes to pretend he is in a submarine that soothes him into slumber a few days ago he told me he likes to pretend he is on a train for the same reason my husband is a good, happy man who is easily pleased I could be sleeping beside him now but I am wearing a green pore cleansing mask I bought at the Vitamin Cottage typing away my demons well past midnight because I took a long nap this afternoon while my husband made rigatoni and Caesar salad and I am not ready to deal with the residue of the day inside the clutches of my REM don't want to dream of another tornado or another stepfather maybe the dreams will be better if I pretend I'm inside a spaceship all alone with no aliens to steal my eggs. |
