The Easy Sleepers
Like 6 Pin it 2There's gonna be a war...
Between the easy sleepersย
and the insomniacs ..Easy sleepers..ย
Falling asleep in their Snoodies and such..
While the insomniacs create great machines all nightย
then come home to their alkaline childrenย
with the smell of heavy solderย
saturated in their hair and skin..Chilled liquid mercuryย
over a couple of
eighteen month old matured batteries..ย
The breakfast of the future..ย
The breakfast of champions..The easy sleepersย
quietly give in to their fate..
They are fireflies in the dawnยThen...With the yawn of the hippos breath
and the smash of the apes bone hammer...
In a flash... they are gone!

Your writes are always amazing Syd...you have an unique style which I.love x
Thank you very much Marion, and likewise...I always look forward to reading your poems. I was afraid no one would want to comment on this one as it is quite abstract, also free verse which I don't usually try. Glad you enjoyed...I was just trying my hand at something new ๐
Take careย - Syd xoย
Ah you know what what it'sย like on here Syd...sometimes people engageย and other times everyone posts and runs. I never care what people might think...neither should you...x
This is so crazy, it's frightening what the Mind conjures,ย I love it, it'sย like a nightmare .
Thanks Gerard.
I'm glad you enjoyed this one.

Syd, just blooming brilliant writing throughout and never a bum note or a word wasted on what is offered up.
And my apologies for not commenting at the time, Mr Sandman caught up with me.
And is that ape's bone hammer a nod and wink to 2001.
Anyway thanks Syd and highest respect to you and generously sharing your unique writing and captivating words and also for making this heart beat that little bit faster.๐
Hi Shaun,ย
Thank you for your very kind comment. I'm glad you enjoyed this abstract piece. It's rare that I write now. Hope you're keeping well.

Syd always a pleasure reading you and as this week advances will be reading more from your good self.
I know what you mean about cutting back on writing the ying and yang of it and life/time/family/health and many more myriads play their part.
But we're lucky on here to read and take stock of, all of that you have
written.
ย For a poetic something is better than a poetic nothing.
And yes I'm wellย and hope you are also.
Hang in there Syd and high respect to you.ย ย ๐
