This Is Why I Don't Like To Remember My Dreams



Dream or Nightmare?
A gunshot

to the back

of my head.

Sudden burst of sound

as flesh and bone

are freed from their

corporeal enclosure.

Shock in the final seconds,

a hand reaches to touch

the gaping  hole

once covered by hair, flesh

and bone. 

A slight wind

as fingers touch

the fatal wound.

Contact,

consciousness

thrusts me

into the waking world

once more.

The start of this day.
