I have dreamed I've dreamed your image I've begun to believe You have ceased to exist In the tangible world The blistering humming We sleep Thousands of bats Feral, flesh hungry Should I let them in Or sell off the property Incise the infection Invite their protection The lines in your face The taste of your body If I floated away Would you still recognize me Or maybe you don't No reason to go Embrace it alone Or just close the window A phantom reflection A faint recollection Incise the infection Invite their protection
