I dreamt I dreamt I begged
you for us to watch
The Office—it was
so ominous inside,
so insidious inside of me.
When I awoke I was so still,
still thinking I was in limbo
still. The frogs, they only laughed
at me. Why do they?
Why do they laugh
as the dawn draws near?
All I knew was
all I needed was
for them to never
stop—laughing at
me living through them,
knowing what is real,
and I’m still alive.
