Well past the strokes of midnight
The end of another day's stressful fight
Teeth brushed,pampered bath,incense stick
Was certain I'd doze off quick
A moments blackout blanked my senses
Spectacles off,head on pillow,off defences
Turning on my side gazed at the PC monitor
So alive minutes ago looked like a duffer
Grey and lifeless monitor reflected
The shimmer in my brain; sleepy,tired
A gusty wind blew; curtains flew apart
Heard a strange hum sat up with a start
The PC monitor had strangely come alive
Showing a colourful view of the Milky Way
The PC monitor like a telescopic window
Eyes transfixed,unblinking,where does it go
Hours seemed to pass I moved across space
A bright blue flash; the screen turned blue
In its midst a yellow disc with fringes of green
Peered closer and I heard music serene
Was intoxicated ; drunk with the calming music
For a few minutes the 'player' allowed me to drink
My eyes again became heavy and soon closed
It's morning now and I write ; my feelings bulldozed
