Seasons come and go like seas' uneven breathing, deeply heaving. High tidal breeze, swells rise, seizing; lunar lock and keys hide sleeping, dreaming. Full feelings meet beaches easily steaming, waves crash breakwall, mist smoke screening. Then new sliver smiles, teasing, moon's silver filigree grins sharp, gleaming; shallow reefs peeking, watery weeds, wrists reaching feebly. Dreary ceiling and lighthouse beacon needed to cleave through these evenings of nightmares creeping. Heart darkened by legions teeming with evil heathens and devils, demons, towering behemoth war machines ceaseless, stampedes succeeding; peacekeeper unseated, depressive diseases breeding, thieving and depleting reason, leeching, treasonous lesions bleeding; feeding on weaknesses eaten. Meanwhile free man cartesian mapping Elysian regions, feet and knees freezing- insomnia's silence screaming, no egress, yet adamantine, unheeding, eager to only keep own legs still leading, each step meets concrete through bleakness, seeking bright beam's lamplit sweeping serene for me but heat seething these cretins like a bee sting. Dawn relinquishes, shadows fleeing back to the steepest peaks, creatures beaten, receding as sun climbs east egregiously defeating, signing tomorrow's treaty agreement before besiege on eden repeating.

Sleepless Evenings (1st draft)
Seasons come and go like seas' uneven breathing, deeply heaving. High tidal breeze, swells rise, seizing; lunar lock and keys hide sleeping, dreaming. Full feelings meet beaches easily steaming, waves crash breakwall, mist smoke screening. Then new sliver smiles, teasing, moon's silver filigree grins sharp, gleaming; shallow reefs peeking, watery weeds, wrists reaching feebly. Dreary ceiling and lighthouse beacon needed to cleave through these evenings of nightmares creeping. Heart darkened by legions teeming with evil heathens and devils, demons, towering behemoth war machines ceaseless, stampedes succeeding; peacekeeper unseated, depressive diseases breeding, thieving and depleting reason, leeching, treasonous lesions bleeding; feeding on weaknesses eaten. Meanwhile free man cartesian mapping Elysian regions, feet and knees freezing- insomnia's silence screaming, no egress, yet adamantine, unheeding, eager to only keep own legs still leading, each step meets concrete through bleakness, seeking bright beam's lamplit sweeping serene for me but heat seething these cretins like a bee sting. Dawn relinquishes, shadows fleeing back to the steepest peaks, creatures beaten, receding as sun climbs east egregiously defeating, signing tomorrow's treaty agreement before besiege on eden repeating.
