Equilibrium

May the stars ever fall upon your sleeping brow,

endlessly burning Elysium wishes for your

heart of hearts.

Sleep falling on the back of meteors into

abysmal anopsia.

It’s said by forked tongue

and blind eye,

that sinners cannot dream.

Am I a lover or a sinner?

My mind has dreamt dreams unfathomable.

Brought me through never-lands

and planets unparalleled.

The sandman is my god.

The equilibrium of the shades of light.

His gray scale never tips;

and that is where sanity lies.

I’m no vagabond,

but beyond my skulls walls,

in the eyes of the masses,

I am nothing.

But they are too.

All black and white.

Choice is insanity when so defined.

That is why they fear me

loath me,

lust for me.

I am gray,

societally insane.

I drive them mad,

and in the morning

once the black tenderly kisses the cheek of the

burning fluorescent white,

I open my soul’s windows to it’s brilliance,

and smile.

Sinners love,

lovers sin.

You tell me,

is it righteous?

For you to decide where the scale tips?

Sandman’s equilibrium

laying me down to sleep

I pray to him to keep me

and watch me

for sanity is lost,

if he is gone.
