Arturo Michael Poet Verse

I Dreamed a Dream 2

A chase thru the jungle ~ frightening calls 

Black Panther takes down~ sturdy wild boar 

Silence of forest~ a vicious death by jaws

Warm scent of fresh blood~ a savory lick of the claws 


Hairs at attention ~  as I slipped passed and crawled  

Must get away~ gotta get away ~  shadowy Angels looked on

Heart's racing faster ~ a dart in the dark  

Tumbling over precipice~ my whole life's back to start  


When a baby ~ hugged a lady 

Mama was everything  

Saw how I hurt Gina~ in a terrible way 

And from there went falling again 



Dirt walls of tunnel~ swirled~ down as I went  

Into Hell fire ~ reeking of sulfur incense

Egos melt quickly ~ flashing regrets 

When suddenly was flying~  through the World Wide Internet 


Busy minds crashed ~ overload trash ~ virus infected files

Press enter to clean~ for whatever that means~ I'm deleted on screen

I dreamed a Dream

Brandy Nicole February 18, 2019 at 8:09 PM Wow!! What a dream!!! This sounds like something I wrote, yet the theme was a lot different. "His Territory" is the title to the poem. Hmm, I may need post it sometime. Your thoughts hold many moments indeed!! Frightening. ~ Brandy Arturo Michael February 19, 2019 at 5:40 PM Send me "His Territory"...would like to read it... Arturo Michael February 19, 2019 at 9:39 AM Thank you Brandy...I'm looking to expand my writing style...I must grown out of the norm...or get stuck in one form...

Caren Krutsinger February 18, 2019 at 2:45 PM I feel like I have fallen into this dream too, and am struggling to get out. Wonderful introspection, and tearing apart what a dream truly feels like. Arturo Michael February 19, 2019 at 9:36 AM Thank you Caren

Tom Cunningham February 18, 2019 at 1:07 PM Those dreams where it moves at a fast pace changing from one scene to another and you wake up thinking what was all that about. Love the imagery. Tom Arturo Michael February 19, 2019 at 9:36 AM Thank you Tom
