Cryptic dreams of pink ribbon tied balloons
reveal apocalyptic messages; paralleled
reflection of dark figures asphyxiated
by glistening ripples of murky water.

Executed by the aquatic noose of obscurity, apprehensive parties drown in the masses. Faint and incessant: Are we cogs in the machine?’ Water pervades the lungs of the obsolete.

God is a somnambulist, collecting essence when discontented with his dreams.

In liquid skies of sanctuary -- a subliminal sonata weaves itself into congested thoughts. Faint and incessant: Are we cogs in the machine? The inexplicable question inflates each balloon.

Floating spheres of disorder hover above the shore-line, carrying messages beneath the incandescent light of heaven’s laughing crescent.

God is a somnambulist, collecting essence When discontented with his dreams.
