to wake up at 3 a.m.,
to lie
there completely awake,
staring at the ceiling
twiddling
your thumbs.
watching the dark shadows
of the fan
spin slowly above you.
it's raining out,
there's thunder.
a dog is barking in the distance.
all of this
will be included in your
next dream,
once you fall asleep
again,
and get there.
