Somewhere Within It was at night I dreamt a sight An amber glow, of amber light Lighting staves of waves of graves An enclave full of stone engraves And there within the pile of stones I heard the whisper of the bones A drum beat of a rank of roll That ate into my very soul I stooped to read each word I could Brushing mold each stone I stood And there in amber glow was fed The secrets of the gone and dead But quicksand grabbed onto my feet And I was drawn below the peat Down into the dew of dawn That clings and rings each cue of morn And though I rubbed my eyes to free The words were gone my mind to see And I was drawn back in estate The black of wait that is my fate For now too late my strut of prime I wait the glut and cut of time |

Seymour, your mastery of the craft is a sight to behold. I don't know if your dream was real or not but these chills running up my spine surely are. |
