Sleep no more

 


Sleep no more

for unto your dreams

the unruly demons

have poured.

The force of army's

from lands of fire.

The denizens of death

won't ever retire.

They are firing

their weapons

with passionate glee.

They keep sounding

loud pounding

noises at me.

Blaring alarms

when the dreams

start to calm,

to bring forth the terror,

the wild ferocious storm.

 

Every person

asleep in their beds

is in their grips,

their clawed evil mitts.

The scraping sounds

they emit.

Shredding, grinding deep

into your heads.

The sound of death

to the already dead.

An unholy riot,

a disquiet so perverse

and disturbing

that your thoughts

can no longer converse.

 

Where, oh where

is the watchman?

Where is

the night's saviour?

The knight

of the moons

round table,

the one that will answer

our sleep deprived prayer.

Where is the watchman?

Doesn't he care?

 

He is in the throes

of a dream of his own

A vision so vicious

that his mind is delirious,

Will he survive? This is unknown.

If he survives, his mind

will be twitching

and itching for death,

wanting to put his guitar

to his head,

and ring out

the loudest chord

he can strum.

To stop the sound

of the marching feet

as they come.
