    The clocks remind me of the Dali painting where they are melting. I like how the alarm sounding in the morning comes as a quick contrast to the dreaming lines, just like how we get woken upπŸ™‚

  • I snooze for 50 minutes before I actually get out of bed, lol. Loved your poem!

    Hahah this is great! I’d often fall asleep in the past after the alarm, Mike. Oops. I loved the talk of dreams too. One of my obsessions. Well done! πŸ˜„

  • Not if the button I found was good for another 10 minute snooze, lol.

    I love how this poem engages in the dual ideas of waking and thinking your awake while still asleep. Great read!
