Dream Sequence (ii)

sound shadows fade
in forgotten sand
and pharos fountain
long forsaken

while chaffinch chatter
on distant heath
a challenge chant
for one and all

and in the fog
the serpent sleeping
dance and swim  
and slumber deep

the shattered pipe
and chalk wall crumble
in the mirror
a shadow waits

black cat coated
moonlit silence
the ticking clock
the empty chair

seeping slowly
slumber light
awake a gentle
deadly stare
