4 AM dream

Folder: 
14

Loss in indigo darkness

     distress coursing through my being

shattered images flowing changing

     confusion not understanding what was seen

 

blueberry muffins sticky and hot

     one dozen found and one dozen lost

seeking in freezers cluttered and cold

     perpetrator missing unable to find

 

Angels are watching with distressing concern

     some trying to save and some trying to condemn

sharp points of doctrine tempered by love

     intervention desired seeking to save

 

opening my eyes into gray gloom

     smart clock has no answers only the time

not understanding laying awake

     dawn is long coming wanting to sleep

 

memories disturbing keeping sleep at bay

     guilty parties known becoming unknown

somehow are morphing in flowing change

     the guilty are changing in monstrous ways

 

closing my eyes and seeking relief

     wishing the dream would just fade away

accusing accusations of violating innocence

     abusing another to seek personal gain

 

oh what is it that lurks in dark of night

     twisting the darkness into half remembered dreams

is it external or part of me

     feasting on fears in dark of night

 

opening drawers and within them searching

     for missing muffins somehow astray

wondering why who stole them away

     perhaps already consuming forever lost away

 

time slowly passing and staring at the walls

     clock has no answers but I have not sought

perhaps there is wisdom in its artificial ways

     casting aside all hope of the night

 

rising up in dark of night

     running away from dreams that I had

seeking the light to be found elsewhere

     as dreams shatter and then fade away
