I dreamed that I had peanut hearts in my teeth--
hundreds of thousands of them,
and that a soft wild animal was reassuring me
that the cold was necessary to put the child to sleep.
The animals all know that the best way for someone to fall asleep
is through the cold, but they are hesitant, defensive,
they know that we don't often believe them.
The blood was gone and the grass turned green.
Did it help? I don't recall.
