“The Enigmatic Life of Clara Sandoval,” “The Regime,” and “Tanka Number Three”

My aunt had a dear friend named Clara Sandoval
But my mother did not approve of her at all.
One day when we were alone, momma said:
“I do not like that Clara Sandoval.”
She added “and I don’t want you to trust her either
No matter how much chocolate she brings you.”

“Binge-Watching a Dream,” “To Tell the Truth” and “The Moment and the Sequence”

When he awakens, the dream tucks itself in.
At bedtime, the dream starts the night shift.
