Sleep Lg, Please For Me Poem by L.B. Temuco

Sleep Lg, Please For Me



You are fragile in this wind
In the lower atmospheres of the heart
You wander in dark mists
fill the deep inviolate hollows
from which dogs bark as you pass
Oh, yellowed golden soul
Chaos, bring nothingness to all things
and find our naked need
And it is so amazing
in this little sleep,
you take my breath from the air
incinerate my bones
You wish no claim to virgin solace
to dream me as a dream
Open my eyes sweet Hypnos
let me gaze longer at the moon
lay silently beneath my skin
It is the way you awaken
found as you are,
never as you were
Before you slept before
A vagrant of endlessness
You have no need for love today
You have no need for its tired sacred coil
You have no need for love today
but love you are
Never, nether world, big sleep,
Aura’s reason to sing hymns
in the morning air
Ah, Hypnos, son of the darkest queen,
in sleep, on me,
let her open eyes gaze
Beloved, sleep.
