NIGHTSCAPE

the vibrating pixels behind eyelids at bedtime
    used 
    to 
    be 
the gentle show of a toy kaleidoscope
    or
stoned operatic soaps

    rendered
        in fuzz  


            now
            its

silent sheet lightning 

over periphery mountains

and                                              from sitemaker.umich.edu

a claustrophobic Monument Valley

    tightly framed  
    by
machined-square corners 
    spilling

        a
whirling silver dust of steel burrs

    that
    the
        sandman pockets

            and
            saves 

    for my alarm clock eyes
