The Cafe Cat

I had a dream about you last night

In the Carlisle general store

Massachusetts

You were the candy bar

The cereal

Even the toothpaste

Reading the instructions

An advert of your handsome face

Spoke to me

In animation

Breathlessly, excited

Filled with promises

Even in sleep

I thought

'That isn't like you, is it?'

But what do I know

What do I know

Of this secret, silent man

Who comes to me

In animation

Eloquently, lovingly

Without instructions

And leaves again

Without a single promise
