to run away, but the nights
wouldn't let him.
there it all was
in each dream.
each time he closed his eyes,
it all came back.
all that he tried
to put behind him.
the mistakes he made.
the brothers and sisters,
the friends.
the house
he lived in,
his dog and cat.
he tried to run,
tried to get away,
to disappear into
the sand and water,
into the Florida sunshine,
but the nights
wouldn't let him.
