IN A STRANGE PLACE

the word "strange" is fantastically common. when you wake up with a cheap fork under your pillow; still dreaming. and the fork is super cheap... the thing bends when you try to push it into a hot, rare steak on a plate at your bedside. you begin wondering if the bid you turned in is worthy. Flabby, tired; sharp - on the surface. still awake. not dreaming anymore. was there a steak at my bedside? the pillow, the position, the bed just isn't right. apparently, i'm not accustomed to difficulties sleeping.
