I had a dream I was buried by Mary, the sun shining down on the cold, open earth. The passerine birds rang through the garden. Each dream of death is a sick dream of birth. Tight as hands hold or folds roll in whale bone, a song in every sigh. I've been a soothsayer's sign-seen or presage, I built my walls up high. Cut to a scene of a wide open prairie, the creak from a tap where no water flows, the sting in your eyes from the ghosts of blue smoke rings, the pounding of drums through the floorboards below. The scarlet one sings a righteous song, "All the best of us are gone". The smallest rose proves herself most vain, all she sings is her own name. The telegraph beats a binary sound from the bark to the ground. I rush to write then I turn to recite aloud.
