Sleep Walking (Photo credit: corey.wagehoft)
Sonambulatory surrender
Caught between
Ether and ethereal
Exilir and exile
Wandering blind but seeing
Down shadowed hallways
Shuffling, shuffling
Delirious disorientation
Shot through with
Night and nightmare
Delirium and dream
Every step a pattern
Of preternatural instinct
Shuffling, shuffling
Sleepwalker signalling
Words between
Wondering and wonderment
Desire and design
Thousand step journey
Unconscious and alone
Shuffling, shuffling
