A Dream and Manuscripts

Dream

D phoned this morning
In a dream D recalled 
giving me M's Manuscript of Poems
Did I still have it?

It took two hours and some
to go through fourteen packing boxes
in a filthy and dangerous barn

In the fourteenth
There was the manuscript
with a good many notebooks
of my own

Elated
I wrapped the volume in tissue
before placing it in
a post transit package
and set it on its way
first class
