in the shadows

wasteland wanderings

bring memories of many

some living some dead


when souls are sleeping

sharing channels are open

time has no limits


some came as victims

some collateral damage

all look for shelter


for most there are debts

others sleep seeking solace

for love or for hate


I am the watcher

of this desolate landscape

sleep is not easy

If you are the watcher of dreamtime, perhaps I'll sleep better tonight...

This is odd but I never remember my dreams, but when I do, they are those biting real dreams where you strike up, teary eyed wondering if they really happened.  The ones that leave you in a major funk for a couple of days.

Your last stanza made me feel as if you were the first three, as well.

The setting sun shown through
     the polluted atmosphere
          dispensing its light
               for the pleasure of the Watchers.

One Watcher said that the sky looked like Mother of Pearl.
That made sense somehow.

Just hugs, Mr. C.

no, I don't imagine sleep comes easily or quietly for a night watchman

I figure if you walk through a wasteland once it was something special filled with people that now have dead and gone.

great write enjoyed it

Every night...every single night of this world...and of course without saying, even at times denying...for the best of reasons.

I do understand.

It's 3.10am where I am right now, and sleep does not come easy.

Your word touched me.
