12. Camera Obscura

12. Camera Obscura

A Chapter by Rudi J.P. Lejaeghere
"

A 'scream' is always just that - a noise and not music. Carl Jung

"












I’m dying every night,

a moment in the shadow

of a grinning moon,

a count in the sneaky gliding

of a cloud upon the light.

 

My thought is a hobo

on the sound of a crow,

I’m closing the brightness

doubt after doubt.

 

The sharp of their edges

stripped of any kind of reason

is cutting as a knife in these sounds.

 

Out of my throat falls a scream

into a dark and silent room,

I disappear in the waves of the tide

in this dream that I have

of a sleep that is waxing.
