Running down Chicago Ave barefoot brain buzzing hymns and static, neon crucifix blinking above a bodega, the gospel of smoke and piss, all-night diner flickering with ghosts of jukeboxes past—she laughs in her sleep, god I miss her already, dreaming of Congo drums, 3AM baptisms, ash on my tongue and wind in my coat, don’t

Night Terrors
In the pitch darkness of the night
Where nightmares come to fright and haunt
I lie awake my heart in flight
In the pitch darkness of the night
Praying, pleading, for morning light
When fearsome terrors cease to taunt
In the pitch darkness of the night
Where nightmares come to fright and haunt

night terrors
What are you thinking all alone, my dear
As you sit worried by your fire so bright
Do you reflect on the bad days of yore
While you stare at the red flickering flame
Is there something from your past that you fear
So you try to keep the dark out with light
As over nightmare memories you pore
And

It sits hiding in the deep recesses of the mind, waiting in the dark for the moment when it can attack. Riding upon the winged beasts of the night, bringing horrors untold to those unaware of their intent. Asleep and unable to defend one’s self, night terrors attack.
Seeking the young, the battered, the old,

Night Terrors
Night terrors invade my dreams late at night:
unable to breathe; I gasp, terrified.
Beyond nightmares, terrors fuel a fright:
that's so intense that on waking, I've cried.
Dead soldiers keep whispering in my head;
their constant murmur, morphing into screams.
And I say prayers to ward off the dead;
still, they manifest themselves in my dreams.
It begins with little more than

Deathly living till dying breath.
Somber dreaming a lively death.
Body ailing, self enemy.
Ever changing the remedy.
Boldly living from open womb.
Never changing, to closing tomb.
Never living a normal life.
Ever planning for daily strife.

Night Terrors
Why can’t I sleep, when will this end, this up all nights, becoming a trend, I can’t switch off, my head is full, my lights are out, my room is dull, there’s not much noise, my comfy bed, these nasty voices, inside my head, they never shut up, they never stop talking, if feel like

Night Terrors
It’s you I call to in my dreams,
To pull me out from the fear I’ve seen.
The ones that hold me in captured fright,
When slow motion kicks in,
And my screams are no more than wheezing murmurs,
When my thoughts are running faster,
But my motions slow to a crawl,
Drawing out the torture of the moment,
But this time you

Night Terrors
Restless sleep triggers delusional dreams,
that your beleaguered brain surrenders to.
And from night terrors, you awake to screams
for it feels so real; you think it's true
that spectral shadows are pursuing you;
and powerless, there's nothing you can do.
Though safe in bed, you feel you're in peril,
unable to dispel feelings of dread.
It's like finding your dog has gone
