Sleep Apnea

By

Robert Ferrier

O great impostor
starver
of organs
choker
of the isthmus
of breath
shapeshifter
of dreams
this night
I strap on
a mask
of air.

Claustrophic feel to this one--the air hunger clearly evident in your words--hopefully, this is based on fiction, but I have a feeling it's not--excellent expression!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. :(
