Notes About The Poem

Dreamless and Seething

Dreaming up bloody battles night after night. Sleep on a bed of thorns turned over light. This is how we return to the rude guests. The worst possible scenario was the best. The heart and mind joined together. Lady with a passion for stormy weather. Yes, even with my eyes squeezing shut. At night, beauty is seen at the door of your hut.  Think of your existence as a nightmare. And you'll never wake up, don't you care? The moon tracked me as I tried to breathe.  Death in the sun, the towns seethe. Sun drips on my head to provide peace. The first breaths of the vivid truth ceased.

A great sonnet, Lasaad. Now summer is gone and we must prepare for winter.
