A Dimension of Mind

This morning you were
sleeping comfortably
with no real desire to get out of bed,
unable to imagine anything else.

And later you are running,
trying to run, up the hills in a cold park
weak, staggering, struggling
unable to imagine anything else.

And then you are driving home holding a cup of coffee in your hand
looking down for a second, a very loud crash,
the front of your car is smashed, hood rolled up,
you have driven into the car in front of you and
the cup of coffee is nowhere to be found
not the cup, not the hot liquid,
it was very strange.
