4:24 am

Interpret what you will. ;)

in this house that dreams

and dopamine built

attic angels and basement boogeymen 

meet in the middle 

no vikings on an ambivalent battlefield;

defeat is death, pride is for the living 

so grant me the 4 am fortitude

with which insomniacs face the lonely dawn

for there is no hope here

and I need to embrace my enemy

so who am I,

which monster is more dangerous?
