Half Awake

Held together by the vacant solidarity of dreams.
All the nonsense of a drunken mind; excited, bursting seams.

Rather die trying outside, than killing each other in here.
Our silo’s locked; reams of data & video, all unclear.

Like one Scrooge McDuck & his swimmable oubliette of coin.
My backstroke’s the same in the treasures from trash that I purloin.

Grip of fever, pen in hand; I take note of cold sweat visions.
Fever broke & left my page suspended in indecision.

Well, do I share my nonsense works…ones I barely understand?
Yes…outliers & B-sides lend substance to my one man band.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
