Surreal Reality

Saw a thin fume of carbon Climbing the dusk; Chains of children Marching down the hill To mount to the fire That blazed on the mountain Within no blink Torching the twilight. Led the groaning villagers Following the dark Until I found myself alone. Grassy the entrance Brought me between graves With fog blurring the lamps Turning murky my way. My memory plunges to a scene I was being hunted By the princess, I'm haunted Night faded away Was on a railway trolley On a fragile rail; Bridged upon an ocean Trying to outpace a tiger Huge as an elephant Sent by the princess. Dodged a crack on the track Poor, the animal failed And splash, the water spilled. He begged for help And I was confused again, Relating my dreams To my surreal reality.
