Cumulus impulses
Opaque thoughts

Attempts to cull any recollection
Unable to make realities connection

Temporal bone beginning to ache
Demigod of void… please give me a break

Suspension of consciousness escaping my grasp
Grey matter feeling the coarse steely rasp

I’ll breathe the derivative and beat the master
Stalemate… and recipe for disaster


The time of light between night and next
Has passed me by withholding my best

One lost from a lifetime doesn’t seem like much
A time when the power should be… within touch

Feelings of desolation
In need of rehabilitation

With hope of coherency on the way
Images and impressions may return some day

-RS






 There must be some kinda way out of here... say the joker to the thief

There's to much confusion, I can't get no relief

ThanX Star.

Michael,
You know my feelings on responding and having your work pop to the top, but it was important to me to let you know I read and appreciate your comments.
This started out as something totally different. This one had a mind of it's own and how it wanted to be written.
Only the second time that ever happened. Very strange experience. But I liked it. I'm not one to ever refuse help when it comes to the writing.
