Like a vivid dream can keep one in sleep 

Begging for time in Hypnos’ keep,

I drifted o’er soft purple mountains’ crests 

Skimming the ocean with flitting feet 

 

When I lost control and fell to the ground 

There, a white door in a field, I found 

Opened, ajar, with yet another behind

Withered, forbidden and forcibly bound 

 

I pushed through the barriers

With all my might 

‘Fell into a pool of deepest mind 

Beckoned through a tunnel,

I tore through it at its side

Revealing static, fuchsia limbo 

Buzzing around inside 

 

Like soft pink petals and grey linen in dance  

This world’s gaping belly swallowed me in a trance 

Until I forced my eyes open and knew beginning as end

This strange land would keep me if given the chance
