"...I have broken free / Broken by the earth to take to the sky"

On a Blue Cloud of Dreams

If only I could sleep until I die
Soaring the sky on a blue cloud of dreams
Far beyond all this madness up so high
Where nothing matters anymore it seems

Let the other shoe drop for all I care
Excreted from the body politic
I want to feel the night-wind in my hair
Where war and folly no more make me sick

Since I fail to see waking hope for me
Except I sleep until I die and fly
Anywhere but here I have broken free
Broken by the earth to take to the sky

But do not wake me when it all ends please
If I cannot die at least let me sleep
If barred from the sky then let me sink deep
I want no more waking indignities

Beautifully sad write, Steve. Always remember that this world is only as messed up as our fellow human beans choose to make it. It's their illusion, not ours, and we can always be in better places in our dreams. As Enya sings, "Sail away, sail away!"

Steven, you're so sad! I hope everything is alright!
Sleeping is good for us when we have beautiful dreams, but one should not hope to die young...

no, no! That's not the eway--That is a dark mood--think life is good--Think how good is the Lord--Think travel--by chair, if there is no other; think positive--
You must initiate the positive
Elimate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with mr in-between. Marguerite 'lil flower

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
