Sleepwalking by Luis Cuauhtémoc Berriozábal

Join me in sleepwalking
without fear.
The weight of the world
is all wind.

We can climb walls with
our eyes closed.
We can run against the wind
and the world.

We can take measured steps
and slow turns.
We can let the man know the sky
is limitless.

My sleepwalking is all I have.
Touch my heart.
Meet where the day begins to
fade away.

Luis Cuauhtémoc Berriozábal lives in California and works in Los Angeles. His poetry and art has appeared in Black Petals, Black Poppy Review, Blue Collar Review, Escape Into Life, Four Feathers Press, and Kendra Steiner Editions.
