sequel to the Timeserver.

I just had a nightmare.I'm a chronic insomniac,I hardly sleep. And when I do,it scares me. I'm in cold sweat and just wrote a sequel to the poem I wrote a while back. Now that the dream is fresh.

The Time server II

Sleep my innocent nemesis drew my asylum

Into the fiery flames of my mind's chamber

Until I saw her in waking and dreaming snarl

Her fangs,her claws,her maul

I whimper.

My bark is my sword,I chortle in retort

I fear u none with my courageous fort

Your stabs I dodge with blazened arrows

I'm a marksman now,an archer's pride

Come U may from surprise

Squarely face you me done

My fitful dreams crown my noose

Cherished hour twisted loose

I felt your bloodied whisper

Curdle cold my futile veins

Your black widowed spider chants

Sisterhood into the cauldron

Smear Smear Smear

Only my good name here.

Otherwise I lie awake.

I'd never sleep again

Not a minute,second, perchance

To have another battle lost or won

I sing truly in the tenderest whisper

"Fraility,thy name is woman."

The Time Server



U said,my dreams were yours
Sorrow left its grasp ago
And so like an angel glided
Wings I saw now discarded
The heartfelt embrace imprinted
Fingernails and strangled clasps.


"Witch!"screamed them
And cry U did, heaving
Your muffled bitter curses
Was it then U heard me
My worthless gutless breathing
I,the regal cream faced loon


I could draw my swords
Split them at your chest then
Demanding soul,truce,integrity
"Fraility,thy name is woman"
Like Lucy in Dracula,I danced
And perished at my own peril


Four years later,none the great
Did the girlish banter never exist
U,the U i knew and yet did not
Kissed u,my best friend,venom
You breathed, a loving serpent.
I choked,died and lie awake


Sleep the innocent nemesis
I see u,heard u rob again
Like Gatsby in his wistful dream
I saw u in waking and dreaming
Sleep has bade me farewell
Lady Macbeth to the stairwell.


And yet,this unholy fairytale
Fed my starving broken nature
Lessons of faith,trust and love
Bitter vengeance,a luxurious myth
I loved u once,u hated twice
I thank u still, for that price
