“The fragile frequency
on which his nightglare exists
sends desperate
shock waves; subtle static
to infiltrate my daydreams,
breezing over my lips {come back},
knocking faintly on my skin
now once in a while,
reminding me of when
i really did believe strangers
had the best candy

The waves that got through
to me just like we were
one-

back when
I was fragile
too”
