[This was linked to the New World Creative Union Wednesday Wake-up Call, this time a visual, or rather ekphrastic, prompt. The NWCU, is a shining light in the online creative world, administered by two people, who are dedicated to encouraging support for creativity in all areas, particularly poetry and the visual arts]
Conscious of
a noise.
Hypnopompic.
There’s something
or someone
doing something
familiar
but very vague.
No synapses
connecting
to reason.
Feeling a thirst
that puts
the ‘P’ in pang
the ‘D’ in desire
the ‘G’ in good
deep longing
in her heart.
O please, I want…
…some cake.
