pray i don’t wake
with clock’s
hands

as feet..

and what if the
tooth fairy
ever

tires of teeth?

what will he crawl
into my mouth
to claim
next?

and will it bleed
the roots?

and if sandman
ever falls
asleep,

who will grant me
slumber under
this leaky
roof?

and if i do drift into
either i hope
not to

wake to same griefs-
still clicking
teeth.
