    I walk hypnotically In slow motion Toward the unreachable horizon Lured by a shimmering mirage Lying between the wavering sky And the quivering ground  The datum points  Where sunset plunges down And the world’s golden eye Loses her crown   Mesmerized  I mindfully turn my back On nightfall’s widening crack Until my weary eyes  Awaken to hear the sound Of moon shadows  Haunting her sacred ground

    Lying here daydreaming Gazing up at the sky Wondering how We perceive hues?Why is our sky blue? And why say “feeling blue” When it’s not true  The blue I see Is no one’s fool  So why tease me     I swear, every face in the crowd  Wore your forever smile  Which shines on every dial  Like yesteryear’s last mile  Facing your time in style  Happy faces, new and ...
