geometry lessons
in night-side sleep,
as postulated long ago
in Greek,
the right-side slope of body,
head to hip to heel
inscribes an arcless line
from wake to dreamers’ time,
while left hip tangents,
bends to knee.
there is a certain poetry
in angles so composed.
a minimum of movement
thus is done
and softs the sleeper
sun to sun.
