one day I will live in an old house by the sea and fill my days with stories.
that shoulders every wish for help
love and kindness, wealth and power -
dried and bottled, ground or powdered.
But on my shelf there is a box,
teeny tiny, silver-locked
Much more I'd say #additional,
but suffice it's not traditional
What wish might lie inside

1. once, a collection of costumes and exaggerated masks, a try-on face, a temporary relief from the dark and weary mirror;
2. a toll-keeper, guardian, arbiter
of what enters (people? culture?);
3. you, who with money and taste, decides which masks are worth wearing.

who couldn't sleep a wink for a hare
Ridden all night
By a Beast with a fright
Zoologically, he had a #nightmare.

Your lips, sugar-spun
tasting vaguely of sugar plum.
Nose snow-dusted, warmed
in the sleepy crook of my neck.
I can't move.
Don't break the spell.
Don't wake me from this lovely hell.
Don't make me go back out there without you.
I'd rather #dream a thousand dreams untrue.
