Forgotten Dreamscape

Within my dreams I am named Kuranes
Four decades numbed by the poison of life
I leave this hideous reality behind
Return to ancestral home
Old village asleep or dead
Traverse to abyssal cliffs
Unechoeing emptiness
I stand again before the city I’ve lost
So long ago still timeless and unchanging
Torn from my dream
Into the bitterness of waking life
Can’t stay afloat
Alone within this septic sea of billions
I must find it, Celephaïs
A desperate search every night
Through infinite dreamscapes
Inhale hasheesh smoke
To prolong my slumber
I walk through fields of grey where ancient battles raged
Now desolate
Faced the high priest from his spell released
Innocents
Conversed with gaseous beings formless, ageless things
Beyond infinity
The valley of Ooth-Nargai
To where my spirit cries
Increase the dose
The dregs are all that’s left of my life
Thrown to the streets
I stumble half-awake to the cliffs
Open my eyes
Retinues of knights beseech me
Make me a god
To reign over my creation
My mangled corpse forgotten, I live on in my dreams

Temporal Sickness
06:12

Deep within the arctic caverns lies a machine
Built by the unknown
I seek
Its secrets
The power
To travel through time
Heedless I enter
Into cold chamber
Lifetime obsession my eyes behold
Rapture and fear
It can transport me to any place on earth
To any time
Euphoria shrouds my mind
Miscalculation
In agony I dematerialize
Each molecule torn apart
I appear in a cave
Fresh paintings gleam in
Fire light from the dark
A savage cry I turn
To see bewildered eyes as
My skull splits open and I’m at once alive
I stare in awe as the bomb drops
Skies split asunder a second sun appears
Radiation wave reduces me to ash
Forest floor I stand upon
Tremors, echoes, monstrous shrieks
Instantly surrounded
By ancient beasts
Tyrannosaurs lunge at their prey
Dismember limb from limb
My blood excites their frenzy
To devour their own kin
Castle walls I tread
Crumble beneath me
Arrows pierce my flesh
Blades decapitate
Time warp beyond control
Each jump degrades me
I leave a piece behind
With every waking death
Sickness corrodes my mind
As I observe the future
Civilization is no more
A barren wasteland of lost potential
Humanity destroys itself
I witness as my sanity slips away
Falling through the time warp till I am no more
