A most disruptive sleep - psyche violently pummeled

Upon awakening earlier today
(May 26th, 2020)
felt utterly fatigued without fail
tormenting dreams found yours truly
jangled, harried and
frenzied across broadscale
valiant effort to remain awake
exerted to no avail.

Exhaustion pounded noggin
on par...

My arm is a shooting gallery, 
a roadmap of Switzerland in 
needlepoint decked grey flesh; 
running out of targets fast -

Haunting rainy streets, opium deprived, 
with crusted...

This is no Eden
Yet the mirror is perceived 
Lush tangle of undergrowth
Army of bare, crooked trees
Who formed thee in madness
Has blown fetid breath
Stirring twitches and jerks
Necromancer of death
Cold pale face a question
Bride groom of lunacy...

Another drag... inhale, exhale, inhale, lungs fill with toxic smoke
another sip... fire glides down her aching throat
another croaking whisper to the one beside, although aloof and remote.

She laughs in the face of sorrow, trying in...

Elimination paraglides out of
the steely blue
as
arcs of rainbow slash the sun,
a split eclipse, in two.
Moonrise shed on matte plates
of black heart universe,
floats
on surface iris sheen,
a dual purpose curse.

Star signs carved with random spray
of palettes splashed...

the sake of mankind. 
My fingers are defining their destination 
through keyboard...

You don’t call him Terrorist’
Who can’t dislocate a wrist:
Whose speeches do the plain harm
While he might not waste a farm.

His palms like ancestors bares,
Ancient styles promotes like wares;
He’d forgotten worldly cares,
Save open taunts of false...

I've got a feeling the devil made you mine.
The sand grazes my skin,
gives me cuts in two straight lines.

Pull limbs, twist sockets to dislocate,
beaten body filled with water
to drown would be escape. 

Foam falls down...
