The Axioms of Reveries


In her dreams, she told him he died in his sleep.

She dreamt of presenting him with his death.

A veiled reaper in his kitchen imparted that he was no longer living.

A visage was told of their new existence by a girl.




I pushed him up against the wall and cried to him about how I was being controlled.

I was possessed with the demon of justice as I cornered him to scream for help.

I jabbed his chest and choked him until he understood the abuse.

In the diner, I seize his arm and thrust him into the striped wallpaper and howl.




I was told that everyone in my dreams is a reflection of me.

Troy informed me the people occupying my dreams are me.

Troy said when Elton John was in my dream I was Elton John.

I am Elton John.




I am smothering and cradling myself.

I cannot decide whether my ghost is in the way or rather just a vision.

I wrap my arms around my waist and still cannot breathe.

All my dreams are mirrors that I can no longer decipher.




There were two birds dead on the sidewalk.

Two birds were smashed into the concrete.

Compressed on the ground, there are feathers, blood, and a body.

My feet have hissed next to death twice and I’m not asleep.





Something is upon me and it feels like neither beast nor flowers.
