silent start ( trats tnelis )

…

dawn mimes a yawn

see with subtitles

      unplug headphones

      speakers unspeak

float as a stoat

in a magic dream coat

      walk with the paws

      of a feline ninja

note like a book

then with a pen

      phantom g in gnarl

      secret p in ptarmigan

double u in whore

all is before

      back from the past

      fruitful is a future

statues snooze

so gnostic gnomes

      twist knight knickers

      wrens wriggle then

clouds unshroud

owls count sheep

      in the mizzle’s creep

      when poltergeists sleep
