Ballet School
A shame, we had to go, the view was lovely
The room was filthy, in a way that hotels never are in the waking world
The group is large, with friends that I know well
But the day has been long and we all need to sleep
No room at the inn
So on we go
Dream Logic
Follow the cobblestones
Don’t get on the train, it's not safe
A breath at a small cafe, outdoor tables
Raised garden beds, cobblestone and a faceless voice
“Our school has open space. The girls have gone home over break.”
A place to put down our suitcases
A pillow to sleep on
Single beds line the window in two neat lines
Like Madeline
Black Iron and Goose Down
Brick and wooden floor and in my head music…
… my hand moves before I’m awake
Alarm playing a waltz
