Spins and shadows in my sleep
I see through visions in my dream
Visualized images moving close
In the forest, loud of lone darkness
In the woods where birds sing mute
In the trees of blurred visions
In a place where my screams are held silent
In a place where my hands a' legs are tied down
In a place, in a world of sensation bizarre
In shadows, I see in the distance approaching
In characters so familiar, I see with scare
Spin, spin, spin visions, then suddenly I wake up
Not knowing who or what it was
And then suddenly I wake up from sleep
Seeing spins and shadows in my visions of dream
I love the notion of the forest being loud with darkness...beautiful imagery...
ReplyDeletewhew - glad that was only a bad dream. Well done!
ReplyDeleteHard to discern one's dreams sometimes, especially when we awaken with only a fuzzy rememberance.

I enjoyed the way your dream blurred into reality, where it was difficult to know if you were asleep or awake. Great write, Kodjo. =D
ReplyDeleteThe repetition of spins and shadows at beginning and end is a powerful device. Also appreciate the mood you transfer throughout.
