Farewell Valentine

Not just our dreams
But the boundless space
In which they take place
 
Returning every morning
To this hardened world of time
Thinking it’s triumphant
 
Crawling up on the dark shore
To plant our golden eggs
Convinces me
 
By a mere process
Of elimination
We’re more alive when sleeping
 
Than we are yet
In our waking
Our leave-taking
