Once You Dream In Sound all Is Lost

Once You Dream In Sound all Is Lost

A Poem by E.M. Lev

All the quiet moments All the quiet longing Never lose Win Again Try Fry Once you find it
Quit Hold tight Once it's gone Forever is lost in this moment All the boys Lose the race Hidden in lies and lace the light
Faces north against the wind of your whisper Jump off Once I died twice in two seconds I was born three times
Twice on my Own Once with you Dropped from Your Aerial view Zoom Out Plus Minus Time constraints Dormant
Door Men Dormitory What story shared Snow White Snow Slosh Grey Great Midwest Duct Tape Amplified I'm
plugged into the portal You black hole receipt trapper awhile Amongst the stoic demons of Winter
You're just as lost Run while you can Put the twenty in the pan Green comes around most Tuesdays no promises
to work just moving product Hunted like minks for skins Reel 'em in Let 'em play Waiting for a sound to
drop kick you into town What about standby Along the river frozen but not solid Several drowned while sliding
terrain pushed further and further out to sea quiet quiet Keep talking it makes me feel safe You were right
usually Once I learned that I knew what there was to know Get out of my head Please it's not that I want for
you to leave I just have Things to do What do you want to do now You you Once two feet Touchdown keep the
smoke from the Dogs the wind catches up to the ice Snow people Shivers Yes again and always for this moment
I would trade almost Everything for a VHS copy of what was said Subtitled with internal Dialogue Analog Digital Decay
Nano hearts Feel Nano love Yesterday at one Once I left Sights unseen space filled with sighs unheard Ninety minutes
left on this side of the Tape train reel to reeling about what Could have but phone calls get in the way Once
should be engraved inside the wrist on the Bone next to the Point joints turn clockwise questions Disguised as answers

love the repetitions of words and phrases - really did feel like a dreamscape of subliminal imagery and thoughts being tossed around in the echo chamber of the mind; certain preoccupations and issues being splintered up and stratified; really interesting sense of non-character characters, just a voice with a motive and little else - some since of oddball blurred history, not a story, but a goal for plot and "once...once" really creates the seeming bits n' pieces of this narrator's (many narrators? = universal world of sleep consciousnessess) fixations and ideas.

groovy,

The doors are closing automatically as the thought train shudders in the shatter sound of steam released
