Don't reach to the edge of forever,
where their bodies throb in the darkness.
They hover above me in hot fervor,
slapping with proud tongues.
They prey on dreams and destroy the evidence.
Screaming, I clutch wet blankets.
Not even an echo bounces among the stars.
The silence jolts me from my sleep.
My sweaty brow gleams and the shadow of dreams slips away.
