Lullaby

The lunacy will leave the day

Luminous in flight

As the moon spits out

In jagged beams

Another night

Wrap around this brilliant veil

Tranquil and unbroken

As you spiral down

A world of clay and taut convulsion

The dream swan spins

And cartwheel turns

Down deep within your violet slide

The sun begins to rise

Shaking down its morning swords

To thaw your frozen eyes

The dream swan spins

And so conceals

A heart that aches and yearns

O hush awhile

Sleepless child

I'll be watching over you
