The earth misplaced her lid today
the sky has released his sheep.
Your heart might lurch with sharp dismay
you’ll cry from lack of sleep.
The trees will shed their bark today
for want of cooling down.
You’ll rise from where you sleepless lay
as dream’s charred embers calmly drown.
Last night cruel beasts raged in your mind
pursuing hope with fears.
When terror chews down to the rind
your soul will shift its gears.
You’ll see beyond imaginings
of all that used to be.
Dark truths will unfold crusty wings
to bare the present’s golden key.
The ground is sponge beneath our feet
sparse grass a patchwork drought.
Dry shells of time bake in the heat
as within becomes without.
