Did a Dreamtime walkabout
today in Australia
couldn’t wake up for many hours
sorry for letting you hang out
as I tried not to drown
sweating in our bed
guess my busy head’s
been both up & down,
my feet flying off the ground
& I wish I could see us
traveling
to anyplace we’ve never been before
& the infection
has grounded all the planes
& boats
circling the shore
& I want to spend summertime
in December
with you,
but remember
only in Dreamtime
it could happen,
but no one else
was granted a key
to my imagination
where koalas were
are big as kiwis,
where trees
sang the sweetest melodies
at the shore
Wish you were here—
just 5 minutes more—
