Right before I went to sleep
Last night.
And I remember it
Because I was thinking
Of a certain thing I needed to say.
I needed to put it in a poem
And describe the inferno
Happening inside.
And I told myself I would write it
Tomorrow morning.
There is no way I can forget it.
But I forgot it.
And now my mind goes on in overdrive
Trying to remember the phrase
That was so important to me.
It had something to do
With grey or white
Or something blank
But it was something I knew vividly
Three dreams
Now turned into two
And one that has
Slipped through the cracks
And run away
From my mind
Into the vast wilderness.
