Behold the sleeping giant
Laid out before me like a feast
Watch the curtain pull back
Rays of dawn coursing forth
The vaulted sky streaked with the waking dreams
Cities made of mist
Countries populated by restless wonds
Through the restless eyes shifting beneath heavy lids
Painted with all the possibilities that life brings
Feel that burning skyline
Crack open the chambers of sleep
And release crackling thoughts into the air
To coalesce and crystallize with actions
Only to return to that unconscious life once more
