in dreams I
seek self-containment,
a small room–
just enough
space to be myself, keep fear
on the other side
wedding this
isolation fast
unto sleep,
ensorcelled
by perpetual moonlight,
hiding, awaiting

Waiting for the return of light, the full moon.

Great word, Kerfe, ensorcelled! It sounds so much better than enchanted. Small spaces are like hugs. I too like the thought of keeping fear on the other side.

Like Adjusting to the new “tiny homes”, small spaces can be comforting or claustrophobic depending on your perceptual apparatus.
