Turn Away Dreams

Turn Away Dreams Up late Full of yawning That was yesterday's dawning This is now just on rewind repeat How I hate the hours without sleep Late mornings, later moonless shadowed nights Unreasonable enchanted soured tasteless delights Unyieldingly nightmares commanding attention How I loved them once, adventure interventions Was it thrice and so long ago I just don't know The fires used to be fanning embers burning Now they're restless again emptied yearnings I do them blind without question I've spent all my dimes in past reflection Face it, turn swift away Age is now mere contemplation of the day Playing with Line Gautier Face It 8/8/19
