Dreams are Mice
Stars pin light
On eyelids rested
Dreams are mice
Mind infested
Ice chilled breeze
And I shiver
Numbing arms
‘neath hands quiver
A faceless form
Swims side ‘stead up
Drinking blood
Red spilling cup
Pointing down
Spidery finger
To my own
Unwelcome linger
Beckoning wordless
To muck and mire
Bidding me follow
On forced desire
Astounding steps
Remain undaunted
In reverie bound
Before unwonted
Cricket fiddle breaks
On rotund clearing
Silent savanna
Mid forest leering
Affixed in midst
Rigid standing
My host evanesce
Yonder landing
Still and dark
Enveloping rush
Breath nor wind
Shattering hush
Still….
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh….
THEN SHREIK! And moan!
Hellish bedlam!
From mud and grime
Rising dead come
Circling dancers
Greet Horror’s child
Rotting winds
Cackling wild
Rolling eyes
Burn echoed sin
Brown teeth sharpen
Ghastly grin
Voiceless wraiths rattling
Bone’s dead flesh
Draped o’r
Black Widow’s mesh
Round….round!
Dizzying caper!
Blistered soul
Cauterize rapier
Starved arms reach
Thirsty pant
Dead voices whisper
Nameless chant
Tick knotted hand
Won’t prolong
Reaching…snatching!
Mortal’s song
Shrieking chorus
Raw burned emission
Instrument mine
Throated musician
Fling away trance
Heart rushing to
Limbs fleeing
Lifeless stew
Cracked boot… Broken!
Striped cheek… Torn!
Whipped branch… Pokin’!
Knifing thorn!
Run… run…. RUN!
Only to turn
Back to death’s halo
Bloodless urn
Flying demon
Body not cope
No end! No Begin!
Never hope
Then yon hill
Rising breast
Slope dew-jeweled
Grassy chest
Travel exhausted
To sleep I lumber
Falling to
Damp ground’s slumber
Stars pin light
On eyelids rested
Dreams are mice
Mind infested
