roused from sleep

who is pulling my energy?

heartstrings tugged.

woke me from sleep.

who is thinking of me?
and speaking my name?
who is speaking to me?
expecting me to answer?

it is someone in the Philippines.

feeling restless.
and weary.
and lucky.
and loved.

could chalk this up to jet lag, i suppose.
but, it's not.

fast dreams.
Prado children.
Nathanel and his guitar.
Justin flying.
or is it me?

settle, settle, Muki.
soothe.
all is okay.

my chest is sore.
i feel so restless.
wheezy.

celestial gardener, is that you?

she wants me to dance.
okay, okay.
i'll dance.
