Fallen Angel's Empathy

By lupus tenebrae





Last night, the stars dreamed in unison
with REM sleep, and the sky
was a precognitive indigo.

For once, in self-discovery,
the world wasn’t as restless,
last night, the stars dreamed in unison.

Fallen asleep in the white noise,
of psychic sigh lucidity,
with REM sleep, and the sky.

For once, clarity was alive,
and the vaporous night
was a precognitive indigo.

Author's Note:

Just written today, as the point of discovery was too overwhelming last night. I like being defined as such, it allows me to ask more questions.

  • A former member wrote: Ohkay. This is strange, because it's a rather "short and sweet" categorized poem, but I have so much to say about it. Bear with me, okay? "Last night, the stars dreamed in unison." - Let's get back to that. The backbone of the poem. (Also, rather well worded.) "with REM sleep" - Totally in the right place with this. The way the stars shine and blink at times? To see them in perfect resting eye movement unison would be a marvelous site indeed. "With a precognitive window" - Okay, there I totally went to that Tom Cruise movie (apologies) Minority Report. The Precogs? They see the future of crime and such? With the indigo comment, that was like... foreshadowing magick. The whole second stanza flowed nicely, right into the last. "Fallen asleep in the white noise" - Skipping over Jodie Foster and going straight to wine hazes of the times not sleeping and sleeping. The in between, like yours and Nae's poem, again. This was a very excellent write.

    Hey Wolfie! Good to see you again and you haven't lost your touch maestro! I just re-posted "Sundays and Hayrides" that I only left up for one week, my first villanelle (I had to check this one to make sure) - Cheers!
