Night's Flames

Night's Flames

Upon the flames of the night past
Sleep simmered right throughout,
And in smokes cold as clear glass
I remained awake through shivers.

Being awake by the flames I mused
I could cook a few raw sentiments.
The heat however, raged so fierce
Not a feeling cooked right but burnt.

Frigid ash of those charred sentiments
Rose up with that plume of cold smoke,
I could only stare at that flaming sleep
Awake in the night through the shivers.

In Swedish, it's called vargtimmen...in Middle-English,Β Uht!! That hour between three and four AM when your demons come to haunt you...and your own thoughts become the enemy!!

A wonderfully evocative exploration of reality...and unreality!!

Shukriya so muchΒ Jason for the review and a bigger shukriya for the lingual trivia! Much appreciated. :) Wish a word for that might be invented in English someday too!
