Insomniac's Nightmare
The moon moves and darts to and fro
But only when in the corner of my eye
For when direct my gaze upon
It hangs still, fixed against the sky
But only when in the corner of my eye
For when direct my gaze upon
It hangs still, fixed against the sky
Albino grassblades dance in the night
Mocking my logic and teasing forth fright
Cypress trees walk about like men
An insomniac's nightmare confuses me again

Post a CommentExcellent! I love this.
Love this piece, Brandon!
Great! Nice to see you on AC, Brandon. It's been awhile. :)
Seriously. This poem would rank at least 27 in a "How many haiku can you take in a fight?" app on facebook. This would beat several of them up, fer shor. Stumbled. You do the same. Tweet it with http://tinyurl.com/29yffgs
I give this approximately 4.6275 stars! Pretty cool. Thank you.
