Near Death Nightmare

Short-lived it is - my near death theme, Beckoning only in my dream. Upon it I toss in my bed, In strained attempt trying to shed Its iron grip that holds me tight, I'm tripping my last dance all night, And singing my last somber tune - Under the dark side of the moon. I quite dislike this beastly dream, That's so far - a nocturnal theme. By dawn darn death grants me a break, I thank my fate when I'm awake. Near Death Nightmare - one Deep Dark Call! I'd rather have no dream at all. April 28, 2022
