Wearing a veil
I revisit the past
Hiding from suitors
who hold to me fast

Muffling my words
as shadows befall
Their spirits indentured
— old feelings recalled

(Deamsleep: July, 2024)

Without me
you’re nothing
With me
— nothing more

(Dreamsleep: July, 2024)
Dimensional slippage
conceived from without
Length, width, and height
time squared thereabout

Spacetime endemic
on gravity’s spire
Black Holes ill rumored
supernova inspired

Fourth, fifth, and sixth
but then nobody’s sure
With logic’s deception
embraced more and more

The system it’s flawed
in both structure and form
Pulling you into
the physicist’s norm

Till that day you falter
and turn from it all
When the out becomes in
— and you answer the call

(Dreamsleep: July, 2024)
A rainbow on my shoulder
as storm clouds lie ahead
I stop and wonder ‘why go on’
the rain beyond my tread

Halted from my wandering
a stillness reappears
The world to spin and trap in place
surrounding me with fear

My rainbow slowly dimming
its *** of gold has gone
And in its place a darkness comes
the shadows growing long

But far off in the distance
the sky a new portend
Calling out in vibrant hues
— to walk that way again

(Dreamsleep: June, 2024)
Can we ever own
anything
that won’t own us back

Can we ever say
anything
we’ll never retract

Can we dream
in the future
while freeing the past

Can we give
without taking
not first ever last

Can the reasons
become us
excuses be ******

Can fidelity
triumph
the truth in demand

When sleep
reawakens
its light shining through

Today and
tomorrow
— forever anew

(The New Room: June, 2024)
Separate — Divide
Conquer — Enslave
Tyranny’s — Song
Forever — Replayed
Reality — Stained
Foreshadowing — Long
Divinity’s — ****
Humanity — Gone

(Dreamsleep: June, 2024)
Music ...
weaves through
my memory
its fusion
sublime

Wrapping
each vision
tight
in harmony’s
vine

Music ...
filling
the din
where the silences
troll

Each thought
plays a note
in a
symphony
— whole
