The New Blanket

The New Blanket

Sleep interrupted
rough raw eruptions
sheep threads
tear at my
naked body
in the darkness

crawling
scratchy cover
rubbing
against my
bareness

streaks rise crimson
from my chest and legs
cold creeps over my pores
sleep drags me away
the new blanket
crumpled in the corner.
