Er träumt davon, eines Tages frei zu sein. Must I sleep much longer? Must I sin so dispassionately? Shall I find an open portal and leap and splatter? All of the roads seem sinister and dogs wag their tails but snarl. Beneath a dead Elm I witnessed an Angel weeping and murmuring. His tears were pearls; his sighs prayers. A hag with ******* like needles beckoned to me from near a ruined wall. I no longer possess an ****** appetite. Instead, I am gnawing at the sinews of time which taste bitter as death and bland as chicken. My brain is a luminous, transparent sponge. Dare to take a look inside. I wish to wake in a solid world, but who heeds my wishes? Perhaps I must sleep forever. ~mce

Sleep and Dreams
