Tell me how the war ended.
“They didn’t let you pass. What a miracle, this is.” Said by faceless faces.
What kind of good news is this?
A restless journey of unfinished business,
X marks my spot on the river.
If I can’t pass over, I must pass under.
Tell me when the war ends.
Tell me when I’m accepted.
Tell the legacy tales of how I was expected-
By the Gods.
What kind of good news is this?
In attempt to step off the tower,
The faceless faces gathered-
Arms turned to balloons and ropes,
A safety net on the boat.
No eyes to show the window of the soul-
So they would be nothing to miss.
“We will not let you pass! No rest for the wicked!”
The faceless faces have the key,
I am as heavy as a lock.
Who has the word to let me pass?
I shall destroy it all. As my brain does me.
Thou shall only pass if thee says so-
Rocks are in my coat,
To sink below-
I will ruin your ship – I will make many X’s
You are so wrong –
There is rest for the wicked –
If you do not let me pass,
The Gods will not be surprised.
I am what they expected.
I stepped off that tower,
Wingspan like a Raven
Awake in my bed-
The war inside has ended.
Oh, what a miracle this is.
It was just a nightmare.

Waking up from a nightmare.
