dreams into nightmares
hot is the fire of denial
burning deep as it rises up
from a blacken pit
growing stronger
growing mightier
as it consumes and consumes
leaving nothing but ashes
and death
it’s a destroyer
to the blind that can’t see
and the deaf that can’t hear
and so the mind is now closed
closed
to all possibilities
the prophecies that were
once written
ink on paper
now have the breath of life
as the deceiver led’s the way
his path made of gold
from day to endless night
the beast of everything has been
invited into the dreams of all
turning the dreams
into a nightmare
