Dreamscape Poem by Midnight Clarity

Slide into sleep with me
and dream the nightmare
waiting for my weary fingers
weaving through his mane
before the polished hoofs
flash starlight
the flaring nostrils puff with flames
reflecting in the gleaming
midnight eyes
as I ride my willful way
into damnation
the rolling dark a cloak
to mask the many wounds
I bleed from, toll to the Wild Hunt
payment for the games I choose to play
faerie glamour haloing my flesh
oil slick with rainbows dancing
in the shadows at the fold of arm
the curve of thigh hiding all the pain
that lives beneath the skin
the knives in mermaids’ feet
making agony of ecstasy
two sided coin I cherish
biting deep to prove the gold
and hold back the screams
my dreams demand
on my headlong rush
toward the morning.
