awake asleep

awake
in every breath
in anxiety
before the success
within the failure
no mercy sucks
baffling holiness
waking in doubt
wading in fear
spitting in the wind
twisting in the sheets
pouring out the bottle
opening the book
growing the beard
turning off the television
throwing it out the window
disagreeing with Hagee
agreeing with Imus
drinking coffee with cream
walking in the rain
without an umbrella
listening to Bob
singing with Tom
kneeling before the Tabernacle
praying the rosary
arguing with a nun
walking the dog
hoping
in every breath
asleep
 
wkm
Oxford!
