• asleep,

    I am asleep in internal darkness

    the hallow bay of a lone dog

    call’s down empty streets.

    deserted, dusty, swaying streets

    mouths agape.

    breathe in, breathe out

    raspy shuttering winds

    My thirst,

    hungrily parched sandpaper

    fingernail’s scraping the grave

    the need for nourishment overwhelming

    high on sensations

    rainbow flavored revelations

    I choke

    asleep,

    peace consumes the soul.
