FANTASIA OF THE MOONLIT WORLD

PART 1: THE PROFOUND NIGHT

The desert stretched eternally on,

A forbidding silence in play

The evening, past the noon and dawn,

Relentless, ‘round me lay.

Bathed in the hateful gaze

Of the ever-frowning sun

I walked on, in a daze.

My mind, with thoughts, overrun

The ever wrathful sun, now sinking,

Slow, deliberate, beyond the sand,

Sent forth dark shadows, slinking,

Dispelling the color of the land!

The dunes, now enveloped in dark,

Radiated fear, intense, profound

Which, ‘round me swirled and gripped my heart,

And sang its evil round

Thus was the night which, upon me, descended

Whenst from human bonds, I was set free.

And from humanity transcended,

To become one with the land, air and sea!
