Approaching the Intersection of Fife and 12th

I dreamed I was riding a unicycle
barely staying up
I swished the wheel side to side, twisting my body

It was hard to balance
and match my husband's pace
walking beside me
Plus
we were going up hill

***

I held my daughter's hand
as we walked to her day care the next morning

She called out to the pumpkins on doorsteps
And I saw a man on a unicycle
Cross our path
Effortlessly gliding downhill
