fear's dread of life (6,4,8)
By manunkind
When dreams and sleep
awake- tasteless, gone
life's charade, for a moment, dies
Im introduced
anew to endless blanks
the white walls of disappointment
To remember
again, the bland events
of the pointless rising of day
I slump deep down
within folds of sick heart
and hide away in drowsiness
For dread of life
and still, aloof boredom
is my ugly unconscious fear
Yet to awake
and breathe for empty hope
event-less pleasure is my pain
