Staring at the dark
Enemies from the shadows
Paranoia draws;
Refuse its windmill fight and
Dream into tomorrow's light

From the shop mirror there was an elderly lady staring at me. In revenge, I bought Mickey Mouse top. With glittering jets.

It's not the fireworks
 It's not the starry sky
 It's not the staring moonlight
 It's the night I chased darkness alone

Origin

Dreams bloom
   from simple wonders.
They dance,
   staring with desire.
Standing-
   at a distance-
      is reality.

Eyes are just staring, not blinking
Its time for a drink and a rhyme

Shiniest gemstones galore.
Staring into store
Windows filled with those jewels,

So he baked some scones, bread and cakes
And we had them for our tea.

which held a face staring; me
Hiding will not pass

So I'll beautifully lie...

cold and snow arrives
young praying mantes last bow
staring at the trees
content to see the egg sacs
holding their spring progeny
