Day shift. I wake without my dream. Lay down & try to go back. A truncheon urges me on. I cannot speak their dreamless dirge but understand that beating baton. See others talking to the sky & tying ribbons on tree branches. God is here. I've crossed over. Dream done. #vss365

People are flowers half life's spent in bed waking for their dew. When we feed on the seeds of the secrets we keep we wither our sleep in the longing for darkness far from the truth of the sun. Do not be afraid to be open as the day to blossom as you. #MadVerse
