Bring the Night
bring to me the night
on the heels of mislead humanity
grotesque clouds with ghostly black fingers
linger across a blood red sky
trails of hidden suffering
rise to greet the soft glow of the moon
oblivious to the cry’s of the child
lost without parent
guarded by the wire
whose electric smile
invites a means to an end
the dreams
these dreams
that remind me
of what i left behind
the dreams
these dreams
that lead me
screaming towards
the light
