Finally Falling Asleep

All best days start at sunset, breathtaking.
Here insomniac's journey begins.
Lilac bruises are keepsake by waking.
Lilac clouds torn apart by sunbeams.
Neither dreamer gives promises jokingly.
As a man of my word I assure:
Every gesture encrypts caustic mockery,
Every lie is sincerely pure.
So I promise to learn mute expectancy,
To keep silence while going astray.
Evil spells will envoke higher empathy,
Evil spells cast in thoughtless way.
Way that makes my embrace embarrassing
For each stranger or foe on the route.
Like an animal I remain innocent.
Like an animal I'm dissolute.
Wrapped around intact flammability,
My weak arms that once turned into ash.
Shoot the aim who shows fragility.
Shoot the target who acting so brash.
Heart rate changed it's mercurial frequency,
Took the shape of a fractured snake,
Which I call my own idiosyncrasy,
Which you call an enticing mistake.
So it was. Now keep clear your sanity.
You will need it in good old Elsewhere.
Let me rest in obscure serenity.
Let me stay in my dreams unaware.

From the nest roughly woven of wires, Where the memory chips were tangled, Cuckoo hatchling gazed into my eyes And to what is below, gently mangled.

Неснятые сливки утра прильнули к гусиной коже, Имбирь и лимон терзают трещины на губах. Туманная заоконность сомнения смутно множит, А сколько шагов до края – не разглядеть впотьмах.

И пришлось прервать процесс передачи, Когда флаги затрепетали над улицей, Что называлась Аллеей Бродячих Собак. (Глядит на колонны. Хмурится.)

Пить и пить бы тебе какао сентябрьский пряный: Кориандр, корица, куркума, кумин, кардамон. Шла скрипучим настилом, в пути собирая каштаны, И открылся сезон, и контракт на тебя заключен.
