August 11th, Camille Roccanova

excerpt from a dictionary of poetry
…
In the morning
we lay to forget.
There are
the dreams the disasters the
dishevelment of our clothes
and the way we form our words
—an anatomy
yet to be illustrated
(undiscovered)
covered by sheets.
It is the moment before
our feet touch the ground,
our cotton eyes unripe.
