I hear it all the time...

 It is in the air
IN the trees
IN the seas

It goes on and around -

The ocean is beyond infinit - much more than that.

It flows from the mind and from further than that - 

Out of time and thought.

It is not time that conducts the voice -

The sound it makes moves in and out of everything we know - 

In the depths of it there is no here and there is no now

There is only the moment.

THERE IS NO TIME

And so it flows up to me,

down beneath the ground where the lights collide

It charges out to greet me

Down beneath the ground where the wild things fight

I know it sings right out to me,

Down beneath the ground where the ancestors ride.

It rattles and then it is still,

the tree branches kneel to it - 

the blades of grass fly with it - 

The lights are in its eyes - 

Where the dance never dies.

I hear it all the time - 

Because the dance never dies.

Moving

Let's wait for the dream,

Let's wait for the thing

 Let's sleep and hope for it

For not our lives would to it

the chance the hope

the nonsense hope

the strangest hope

let the madness sing

Would we not siung?

I would not sing

Just sing

Like being in a strangers hand

I would not sing

Let me go

Let me go

I beg you let me go

but I shall still sing

Because I know it will bring

a different thing...

For us all to sleep by.

And rest in peace

Bring it on

forget the past

let it be gone

let it be the peace of things

let it sleep

let it sleep

let it go

it will go

with the night and the blank of stars GOODNIGHT

The Face in the Dark Room

 There it is again -
  The face!
When I awake it is gone - and then i stop thinking about it.  
MY mind is clear when I work.

  But whenever is dark, and when it is quiet, I think of it - and sometimes even see it - the face in the dark room.
  It never speaks.

  It makes no sound.

  But I can see it as bright as a star - the face in the dark room.

  It only ever comes out at night.

  Only when it is quiet does it appear.

  I tried to show the face to other people, I let friends in one night - and I showed them the face.

  The face in the dark room.

  But nobody could see it.

  We stood there in the dark - without the lights on, and it was oh so quiet!
  And I could see the face, as a clear as a star in the night skies - but no one else could see it.

  'There it is,' I said.  'Look harder!  here is the face.  It glimmers now, in the corner, a mask made out of moonlight.  Dull it glows, but it is there - see it now!  Look harder!  There are its eyes and there lies its mouth.  It does not smile.  it is a sullen thing.  Look now, look harder!  There is the face, the face in the dark room!'

  

I am scared to go near the dark room these days.

  Whenever I am asleep I dream of the face.

  I know it is out there, in the quiet gloom, watching - waiting maybe.

  But waiting for what?

  I do not know and I shudder to guess.

  I don't want to ever find out.

  So I moved away one day.

  In my new home there is no dark room.

  I no longer see the face.

  My sleep is dark and silent.

  But I know the face is still back there, in the dark room.  Maybe someone else will see it, and the face will enter their dreams.

  But not mine.

  No sir!

  No more!

  For I am free from that face -

  - The face in the dark room.

The Gnomes are watching me...

 I hear them.
  

NOOOOO!!

I can't take it anymore!

I tried to sleep again but I could do it.
I wanted to sleep I really wanted it - needed it...
Damn do I need to sleep!
But I can't...
You see I have a problem.
Gnomes.
Yes! You hear me correct!

Please hear me out for I am truly not going mad even though it might sound that way.
I have seen them, those beasts.

The little people that nibble at the carpets, and the edges of my bed, the shores of my curtains.  

  They are there...

  I see them every night - because they only come out when it's dark.

  I see their beady little eyes in the corner of my room.  They are always there, watching me.

  They only come out at night.

  I try to sleep but I hear them nattering, speaking in an unknown tongue, and although I do not understand the words they use I know, I feel it in my heart, they are plotting my downfall.

  It is the most awful thing.

  One night I was chased from my bed by three gnomes.

  In my haste I fell down ten flights of stairs -

  YES!

  Ten!

  How I survived I do not know.

  As I rolled the many steps I thought maybe I would break a bone or too, but I did not!

  I should of died.

  I think those gnomes placed some curse on me...

  They want me to live.

  They want me whole!

  I know this because I tried to end my days many times!
  I tried to hang myself once, but I woke in my bed the next day.

  I even tried throwing myself in front of a bus - but I only ended up on front of my desk at work!
  And everytime I go home they are there waiting for me - white eyes blinking in the shadows, nattering in their evil tongue!
  O help me!

  Then one day when walking home from work and man, who rather resembled an owl, approached me.

  He stared at me with his great green eyes and spoke: 'I see the fear in you.  You walk these streets as an imitation of your own shadow.  What is it you fear.'

  I was too embarrassed to speak of it.

  But the man seemed to be able to read my thoughts - it's like he could not only see my fear, but understand it, as if he was a veteran of the same nightmare I was living through.

  'You see little people don't you?' he said.

  I nodded.

  'I do as well,' said he.  'They watch me everyday.  There is no hope.  Move away from here.  If you do not, they will crown you their shadow king - and then you will be doomed to a fate worse than death!  Leave the area my son!  Live in peace.  You will find no shelter in your home, for your bed is built above cursed ground.  For beneath where you sleep lies somewhere an ancient goblin cave - and the hate you for disturbing their rest.  They want you to stay awake forever, to never sleep, like they never sleep.  It will be your punishment if they capture you, to exist forever as a shadow.  You will be forced to listen to them natter forever and beyond!  Flee now my son!  Flee the gnomes before it is too late!'

  

So I fled home...

  I have sought temporary lodgings elsewhere for now.

  I have had a solid night of sleep for the first time.

  But I do not feel refreshed.

  I still can't shake the feeling I am being watched.

  Not watched by people - but little people - little people in the night - with beady eyes watching.

  I know the gnomes are still out there?

  Peace is but a hope for men like me, but I must be prepared, for if the gnomes do come after me I must be gone - like a breeze in the trees - like the sun before the moon - I must be gone!
