WAKE UP!

The chimes so faint, it tickled(8:28 AM)

His ears and so wake did he…

To behold the peace of twilight

Soft voices did whisper to him…


He stepped out into the moonlight

The breeze slowly caressing his soul,

Stars smiling from vast clear skies,

Felt the peace – in the silence of night


And across the moonlit horizon

Signs of life – twittered in delight,

He smiled – at the joy of living,

For such beauty did he witness…


He sat down on the moist green grass,

Breathing – each breath adding new life,

It was now that he noticed the difference

As soft whispers now gave way to screams…



The cold floor – screams echoing…

Sliced through his peaceful slumber

Now conscious, he sat up aright

The screams kept throbbing inside


He staggered out to the darkness

The cold wind gnawing at he

He stood with screams of darkness

Floating in a sky of dust…


Across the burning horizon,

Lay carnage, tainted by hell…

He howled in the face of truth,

For such lies in dreams did he see


He broke down onto broken mortar

Dark smoke – choking each breath,

Now the screams consumed his agony

It now whispered – wake UP(8:50)

The receding light made patterns(7:25 AM)

Reflecting off the wet horizon…

I could see – lying there in the dirt,

Irony of this condescending phase…

The shadows crept closer – menacing

The air grew colder – thoughts disheveled

Cold wind did flicker the flame within

And then it was all over, the fire was out…

The darkness around danced to melancholy

Tunes of lament that could purge the soul

And on that cold night, under the naked sky

The body turned cold…and then settled down…

Then came peace – I was floating beyond…

Where trivial darkness could not me pursue

But within, I felt not peace, I felt not joy,

For all fairness of life, I should not be put down,

Enslaved by morbid thoughts – tied up

Torn to shreds by a thousand vultures

Left to rot where nay shall ever find…

That there was reason – twas not my time…

The peace slowly began to fade away…

A feeling so heavy it thence drew me down

Placid cold did then – so penetrate

I would have died, if not already so…

The pain returned searing within

For a vital moment time did stop

Broke out a spark – cold body within

I opened by eyes to witness – BEYOND!

The shadows of darkness – surprised, stared

Then sneered – moved closer for the final kill

Screams to fury did ensue from within…

NOW…NOT MY TIME…I WONT BE PUT DOWN(7:45 AM)
