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)
