you close your eyes to rest

tired
you lie down.

put your feet up.
you stretch out

and close your eyes.
you exhale.

suddenly
the dog appears with

his head between
your arm.

the cat jumps onto
your belly,

curling into a warm ball.

the phone rings.
someone's at the door.

the world
continues, though

you're tired.
