Unconscious Comfort



Unconscious Comfort

To sleep is to miss the night
Sweet dreams merely the good side of nightmare
Darkness so stark declares the truth
Silence cannot disguise being aware

In the coolness of night meet the best
Strange minds that do not clash
Peaceful world dressed in black
Glittering, strutting, electricity cracks

Resist the drug of unconscious comfort
Surrendering denies the taste of life’s bitterness
Relative to your mood is sleep
Deny that to enjoy heightened temper

Stifle the yawn which portends dawn
Perhaps, just maybe, the light will forestall
Fat chance to stop that baby
Smiling, shining brightly it arrives – NOW surrender!
