Two Pillows Poem by Phil de Lange

Two Pillows



Far too long have I slept with Two Pillows

For who?
For what
have I rested?

In false comfort
hatched
with lead feathers under a
Yellow moon have I
slumbered

No longer will sheep’s wool
douse a burning soul
No longer will I be given Forty winks
under this blankets facade

Farewell to cushioned pretenses-
For now I wake.
