Sober Somber Slumber

 

Late night journeys in achromatic crisis,
with every move so slow and spineless.

Take my hand, take me with you;
please withstand, I'm fighting hue

Oh, what a night, will you not go away.
"What a night, I'm here to help in anyway"


But there you were...adjusting as I had skid
and there you are... lifting away my eyelids

I heard a voice again which I had interrupted.
A bright and blurry figure appeared and I said,


"Touch me with your clairvoyant breath;
reanimate my unknelled soul again"

Cautious and drained, reset by demise
Conscious had gained, beset by eyes

Your minting of the word unknelled is delightful

"Touch me with your clairvoyant breath"
... a poet on this site, wemni, speaks of synesthesia...
when the soul can see colors, hear tastes, etc.

I look forward to reading all your poems
