Closed my eyes and woke to see

I was lying on a boat

Docked on dry desert soil,

Naked and alone,

And could barely stand to walk

Towards the only light:

A sparkling mirror suspended by a string

That must have reached up

All the way to the starless sky.

And in it I saw myself,

Saw that I was not myself,

And where I stood

There was instead

A changeling.
