The Unwelcome Awakening

Dreams smashed Crash on the rocks The breeze-blocks of reality Break the silence and haul from the depths of sleep This heavy carcass Doused in drowsiness Aroused by noise Shaken from the ignorance of slumber That pulled it under Its clothes drip drip drip with weighty plunder Drenched by guilty fantasies Onto the deck Lungs spewing bitter entrails of sin Welcome to paradise.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
