Dreams

Broken helix of thoughts
Twisted strands of desire
Like writhing snakes
In friendly lawns

A single window open
All doors bolted within
Enchanted form on bed
Overlooking grassy floors
Riddled with stalking lions

A floor of white snakes
Like miniature tapeworms
A single black slither
Like twisted heart’s desire

Harken!
The call of the black
The siren of my eyes
Under the thrall of night
In the bosom of stars
