day one.two, bullis park (playground)

as she walked, a thought

solidified

that with no party she had

no day. just the semblance of time time

takes

so many breaks when you live

in a dream she found herself

now standing by a,

looking toward a,

staring at a playground, no children

to stare back, empty

as a winter field when

a playground has no children what

does it become?

she sat down to swing.

day one.one, bullis park (entrance)

she arrived. there was no

party there were no

barbecues no barbecued food there were

no

people. had i misread the invitation

or had it been a dream vivid

as it seemed she had held, opened the envelope

held, stared at the card but it's true

dreams

had always clouded her view.

presently she couldn't trust what was

real what was dream are

these balloons, one

living one

dead evidence that

i had not been dreaming or simply that

i still am.

---

she walked.
