The Daily Mornings of Strange Automatons


"The Daily Mornings of Strange Automatons"

lucid dreams 
those clouds convey
the hidden mysteries
of waking chariots
sucked up in the vortex
heliographs flashing
the silver 
yo-yo strings 
we are like puppets
played for codes 
with buried meanings
transcribed animations
staggered routine automatons 
covered in words of babel
strange hieroglyphs felt
like braille the feelings
understood misunderstood
spoken mirror images
held to the open caves
of mouths breathing 
breath like fog 
polishing time
inhale exhale
away
