Anti-Lullaby
Karen Lee Orzolek
Do not sleep, my starling
Sleep, my doe
She is wrapped in curtains
Laid in snow
She will bury you inside her fur
Do not sleep
She waits for you to sleep
Do not sleep
She waits for you to sleep
My breath you breathe
It will carry you
My breath you breathe
It carries you
Do not sleep
She waits for you to sleep
Do not sleep
My starling, do not sleep
