WHO

the character in the dream speaks

I would never have invited him

he speaks again    he wants

to run things    I don’t even know him

the second night    I think    maybe

I saw him about sixty years ago

he says    OK OK    he still

wants to run things

the third night    I say I’m tired

he says he’s in charge    come on let’s move it

I say    oh well …

the fourth night    I wake up

I’ve recognized him    I

know you    you’ve had your chance

he says    It’s too late    I’m here
