Ode to our New Sleep System
the box arrived in the mail stuffed with hopeful patterns
and as we untied the bag of continuous filament polyester insulation
we smiled
the instructions failed to mention that this heaping mound of synthetic
would grow
daily
taking over the apartment
hovering with it's slippery blue bulk
daring us to tackle the simple instructions
double lapped fell seams, my ass.
but we did
and we won
sleeping bags be damned.
