Wild Horse of Dreams. (opiate lie.)
Silence sleeps in a gray Gothic haze
Sullen and swollen
Miles of jaded days
Vomit rivers of regret and gloom
Spun in rivers under a silkened porcelain moon
White watered maelstrom
Voices promise of a secret freedom
Plastic light delirium
Ancient fields of mystic delights emporium
Persuade Glorious dream
Chanting night-birds take flight
catching souls destined for light
Chambered hearts swell and thrive on oozing milk,
pumping the juices of paradise
covered with flowing silk,
Morning never comes
Silvered dawns delay
The sun sleeps
through myriads of deep dark gray
amidst volumes of windless choking air
Causing a hollow dead stare
Blood-letting fruitlessly fake
Blisters the palate for those who take
and consume divine mockery.
Resident time
Stands silent and alone,
bound by gravity's crushing throne.
A guard-less jail
I go wandering through the gates of hell.
