when things
start to fall apart
you can tell
in advance
by the physical
little buzz
the adrenalin
rush
like a bad batch
of speed: the world
takes on
an unwelcome clarity
some new
sharply-defined
edge
to the images
feeding
into
your brain
and this
sometimes happens
in dreams:
a little warning
forgotten
in the morning
the crossover
is too late --
listen:
the subconscious
state
is the harbinger
of your waking
real-life fate.
