Recurring Dream

Photo/Poem 1 Minute 
   empty movie theatre.
 alone I walk through the darkened lobby
 without a ticket,
 and pass the concession stand,
 unattended, with the comforting 
 chemical aroma of popcorn.
 
 I take my seat,
 always the same seat, 
 although the theatre is 
 consistently empty.
 
 then I wait.
 
 sometimes I'm excited,
 sometimes I'm bored,
 sometimes I'm agitated,
 sometimes I fall asleep.
 
 but always, 
 I wake up.
