_Loading "reality.exe." Please wait. (99%)_ Around you, the vivid shapes ebb; recede and reduce to a wispy gossamer. Look there! By the horizon: glitter (or dust?) dissolving upwards, a pirouette at the astronomical dawning of consciousness. This "hypnopompia": an intermission. An interlude. The in-between of inter-netted eternities.   _How long have you been here? And have you been here before?_   You are nowhere. You are everywhere. Perhaps it is time to wake up.

Hypnopompia
There is a place Where moonbeams can be spun into silk And shadows are as soft as velvet. Where even time himself has paused to admire The star-lanes embroidering the sky. Where whispering ferns uncoil To have their edges painted silver. Where flora flirt, and you respond With the faintest blush - A playful petal on your cheek. Where night-thinkers hum in an intertwining dissonance Weaving a pleasant acoustic haze Amidst a rhythm discernible to those In Lunabrink.

☽ Lunabrink
Night fell swiftly as she began to climb The hill upwards one trudge at a time And when she reached that grassy peak Her heart - it stopped, she could not speak For beneath her lay in all its glory The city so flawless and often in stories It was a black canvas as dark as ink And was so large she seemed to shrink And across the canvas brilliantly flecked Were flakes of gold - no special effect The lights they danced and winked and beckoned So perfect, so pure for every second But when she realised she had to leave She wore her heart upon her sleeve Her face wistful and longing expressed For the view from atop the hill's crest.

Atop the Hill's Crest
We sleep Beneath the tree boughs; Beckoning brights, dancing between branches. We rest Underneath a canopy of suspended glitter; A quilt of infinite fabric Woven from inter-netted eternities. A noiseless face Bathed with interstellar dust Across her freckled constellations. A perfect cosmic cadence Dissolving into dawn.

Beckoning Brights ✶
Drink the stars. Consume them and let them course through your bloodcurrent, Carrying the fluorescence to your furthest capillaries. You will see glowing veins scintillate beneath your skin, As if a thousand cracks are forming on your body-- Allowing the pureness and beauty of your bright soul To escape its host.

Euthanasia
The Air hung tremulous Waiting with curious expectation Her mind gliding with Tidepool Dreams Waves caress the sand - playful. Teasing. She listens To the song of the Sea The laughing foam becoming giggling mist The ***** seagull's cry with false grandeur The weary Wind sighs with a breeze And Her. In solitude. Waiting, Waiting.
