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
