Hi Wj,
are you missing (at the very least) a final 'm'?

Kept on mistaking the first line (I don't ...) for the title. Why is it out on it's own?


I don't often remember dreams.
The liquid evaporates in the shower,

or else it remains at the bottom
of the plastic yogurt cups I toss

in the bin beneath my leaky sink.
The faintest remnants get trapped

in my pores and stored in the liver
to fester.

                Every few months
while driving to the dentist

or waiting in line for groceries,
(or) scaling Kailash in flip flops

after dancing a jig with a pixie haired girl
on the subway at the stop

near my old college dor ........


(where's the rest of it? Every few months while driving ... what? And what happens to the festering remnants? I'm assuming that verses 3 and 4 are the 'dreams/remnants' but still ... what?)


Best, Knot
