The Lost Adventures of Artemis Dobro: Episode IX (When You Lay With Me)


just like silence breaking the golden dawn
a concerto for the deaf comes to mind
    -artwork for the blind-
drifting through time and space
a concept that could never be saved
the unconceived idea of a world balanced by light and shade


someday i will fade away
after the long winter's slumber is over
but it will be a wrinkle in the moment of your time... suspended in the detour of a dream


water never goes uphill unless it gets carried
true love never dies even after it gets buried
the undead never live unless they find love
your monsters will cry inside the closet
your angels will laugh under the bed
and my phantoms will sleep in the shadows as i become the mist of a recollection

written on the mirror in the guest bathroom of a palace inhabited by the ghost of a forgotten lust

so when my morning shadow crosses your face
these dreams shall rest in the silent place....new fields of clover


Anna, She Drives the Big Van While I Smile and Wave at the Creatures Along the Highway

  these broken boxes of dreams scattered about the lime green waters sleeping in icy caverns beneath the surface of moons i long ago forgot ...
