Castle in the Air

-
Time traveler,
Day unraveler,
Sweet sensation,
Daily cessation,

When the sun goes down,
And there is no sound,
I seek out my bed,
As I rest, a world comes to life in my head.

Vivid memories twisted sweet,
Make for wonderful hours in my sheets.
Once in a great while, my nocturnal imagines are tarnished sour.
These awful terrors make for long sleepless hours.

In these dreams so hellishly real,
I find myself alone on a ship with wrecked steel,
Or wandering through a dark forest frightened by a beast in conceal,
Sometimes, I find myself in a mad man’s dungeon where I can do not but squeal.

Time traveler,
Day unraveler,
Sweet sensation,
Daily Cessation,
Castle in the air,
Only dreams found there.

Old mossy protector,  King of frogs,  Stood tall with wooden scepter,  In the festering bogs,  You watch silently,  With eyes of rotten oak.  Guide my spirit quietly,  To nature like a moth to smoke.

Who knows what a girl could be thinking about at this hour,  Locked away with only her mind full of wonder,  It’s as though the answers are hidden behind a broken tumbler.  She wonders when curiosity will pull her under.  But there is good and bad in her mind,  And it’s the excitement of probable find,  That makes it impossible to unwind,  At such an unsuitable time.  He is no maimed devil,  And no amount of chastising metal,  Will hold back the shrieking voice of Never-Settle,  A mental rebel, a great spell, who tells of great peril.  “You wonder a lot for such a young thing like yourself,  I see you are worried but don’t fret I have a fix.  Don’t think of me as some evil elf,  I assure you, dear, forget the skeptics.  Take my especially proven potion  To stop this awful commotion, I can unlock the latch you’ve always wanted open. But you must be warned that t...

Artificial friend,  One who’ll never end.  I love you so so much,  Despite your plastic touch.  You have so many emotions,  And mom says your a bad omen.  The holy man tried to take you away too,  They just don’t know you as I do.  You’re funny when you growl,  And that one time you tried to choke me with a towel.  You’re such a good finder,  You always climb to me like a spider.  Your teeth are so stained, From all the blood they’ve drained.  Your neck is cracked to pieces,  Which according to dad comes from unholy diseases.  The neighbors complain,  Because you don’t refrain,  From stealing their dogs and cats,  Also pet iguana’s, snakes, even wild bats.  Your limbs have all been amputated, But patched back together using blood that’s coagulated.  Your eyes look like coal that glows when you’re hungry,  Only during the daytime do ...
