My Army of Dreams:
the Armada returns in failure.
Every bend of fate in flames.
All hopes and
all the schemes
of a lifetime,
this lifetime,
my lifetime,
now crashing
everywhere at once.
Legs refuse to stand,
on the field of pyres.
Staring towards the Zenith.
A Starless smoky void:
No effing answer.
And, yet!
it is precisely at that moment,
at Midnight,
As the Earth turns home for Daylight,
when I sense a new morning’s Sun,
far beneath my knees
Already Calling Me to Rise.
