And nobody was there

I tried to throw the phone on the bed,

but threw the glass instead,

sprinkling ***** and fanta fruit twist like holy water,

This is where I hurl my head

and wake, and wake, and wake.

Crust seals the eye like a crypt.

Dreamscape duvet: paint your colours,

Phantasmagorical shadows sweep the brow,

walls blend blurred images,

dream friends pass like flocks of birds faceless in flight.

I could ask you what it’s like to be a character in my dream,

make it all about me or you could tell me I’m a character in yours.

Shatter my reality,

tell me I’m your worst nightmare.

 

From corner of eye’s mind the luminescence of lamplight spills.

A startled stumbling, a fumbling with covers out of worlds and into new ones.
