I wrote a poem at you in my sleep but I forgot it instantly

there is always a you in the you I talk about 
spurts of months ago
acid wash
the act of being worn out

I dreamt I was to do the charleston in an auditorium of people but my dress was too long, and or I also was wearing pants beneath it (the long thin breaths in a bed beside me in real life) so I called, tiny voiced, Wait, and of course I'm dreaming of all of my bags and luggages, filled with things like ski pants, the hippest new threads for shredding the gnar-gnar on sale now in Hailey, Idaho. I parked my car next to the dancefloor and half an our of my changing into flouncy layered skirts I was asked to move it, I was skipped, relieved. I had sex with an obese black man who'd come from the Twin Cities to find me. some grandparents almost wouldn't let him in. analysis: I'm moving, don't know where I am have all of my things billowing from backpacks & car don't want to go skiing don't know black people lament for being missed don't know how to dance but want to be before a crowd

to do

an anxious scoop. I think about gayle, about the peasant (self-given name), about the one who's not like us. they are all big hearts in my life, but they and I are anxious-making combos, and I like to live without it. maybe there is only one person with whom I am truly close & we get it & move on together. I suppose I am afraid of them & feel like getting away forever from them. this passes. but I am a turmoil bubble. this is time moving fast, and dead stopped. go to do to quit avoiding to avoid the bedlam.
