Nightmares


the riders galloped into the sky
hooves pounding and pummeling clouds
the dream riders galloped at midnight
their steeds snorting balls of fire
they whispered of the darkness
weeping and screaming sorrows
riding nightmares

Yes, we are the "riders" of our nightmares, "pounding and pummeling" the emotions we push from the surface during waking hours. How you put it to the page concentrated through image and metaphor! Powerful, Dale!

This is a very accurate and quite poetic picture of a nightmare. I enjoyed the read.

Gosh, that is a nightmare.
I don't have them, but feel very sorry for those who are plagued.

Yeah, well, this strikes a chord; I have this enacted EVERY night as my husband is a very restless sleeper! It's just easier to stay awake and dodge the fists flying in all directions... thankfully, no balls of fire though, so I should perhaps be grateful for small mercies. Well, Dale, this is a new recipe for you: seasoned and brought to the boil nicely - but, wot?? NO BLANKET??!! Oh, I got it... it's nightmares induced BY no blanket... I always wake up from them to find myself completely uncovered and freezing, hence the panic! :)) We will all have a different visual for this... mine comes from Lord of the Rings. You captured the essence of the threat well. TY Kate xx

This also reminded me of the three riders in the end of times a very well written poem and haunting effects. Wonderful job.
