Ceux qui ont apparié notre vie à un songe ont eu de la raison...Nous veillons dormants et veillants dormons. -Montaigne
Intro
O full-orb'd moon, did but thy rays
Their last upon mine anguish gaze!
Beside this desk, at dead of night,
Oft have I watched to hail thy light:
Then, pensive friend! o'er book and scroll,
With soothing power, thy radiance stole!
In thy dear light, ah, might I climb,
Freely, some mountain height sublime,
Round mountain caves with spirits ride,
In thy mild haze o'er meadows glide,
And, purged from knowledge-fumes, renew
My spirit, in thy healing dew!
Goethe: Faust I.

♥♥♥ A Prayer ♥♥♥
I WANT MY LAST HOUR
TO BE A THUNDERSTORM
REPLETE WITH HAIL
WIDESPREAD POWER OUTAGE
AND YOUNG LOVERS
MAKING AN OPPORTUNITY
TO MAKE OUT,
TAUNTING THEIR CURIOUS APPETITE
INNOCENCE
TO THE SOUND OF AN OLD RADIO
RUNNING OUT OF BATTERIES
WHILE HER MOTHER
SHOULD HAVE BEEN HOME
BUT IS STUCK IN TRAFFIC
AND THE RADIO IN
THE CAR
BLENDS INTO THE DROWNING SOUND
OF THE RAIN CLOAKING ANY SUSPICION
IF THIS CAN BE ARRANGED,
THEN LET THESE TWO
NEVER SEE
THE PETRIFYING THINGS
I HAVE SHOWN MYSELF.
