Another Night (The Haunted Dream)

Leave a comment

Half past the stroke of luck
That’s all but yet run dry
Three-quarters full, the glass of air
The mind, too soon, will lie
A minute too late for one so weak
The soul, too young to die

The phantoms sing the banshee’s scream
The song of night ringing
So long it lasts, no end in sight
The fantastically well-played scene
Another soul lost to the edge
To walk and haunt this dream

A Dream

When does infatuation last a whole life long?
How is such a dream possible?
If ever you find such a yellow brick road
Please find it inside to take me with you

In Nomad Man’s Dream

4 Comments

Church bells ring
In a life so real it must be a dream
Of the Nomad they speak from
Ill-conceived perspectives
To him, their words keen

They understand not
The ways of the Vagabond thought
The need of the road to tread
Underfoot, the life for him
Their words have bought

“Outcast” cry!
But, oh, his pallet so dry
To face their scorn to quench
His need, yet his spirit he watches
As it doest twist and writhe

The start of him
Created by memories, now dim
For once his, now lost and will
Never be replaced, he was given no
Chance to explain for his sin

Sickness and death
Took his love, in her had beget
In this nightmare where he dwells
He set her free at the well
On his shoulders he carries his debt

His pain clearly seen
And scorn from them he doest glean
As he seeks to yet wake
Or be his life that he take
The end of his horrible dream
