FOURTH WATCH

The lake you hump and down the staircase.
Unsheddable waiting for God to talk back.
You believe what you read of the work of bees
when you drink bottled honey in the hush.
You want to trust daylight’s allotment, but you
were born tired, and you’re tired of pretending
sleep will bear more than you’re borne awake.
