Listen to poem:

Plague Dreams

I want to leave this place 
this place of plague dream nights 
wrapped in barbed wire 
of vacant faces and hot stares 
hell white corrupted desires 
all lost on a pebble adrift at sea 
a fragment of river 
a race from gravitations greed 
so too is this place 
of lost visions and deprecate 
pleas nights of false passion
and fevers gilded in iron barbed wire 
I want to leave this place 
of broken dreams empty heads hot facades 
and cold innuendos 
hell white in corrupted desires 
all adrift in a sea of tyranny.
