From Heaven and Hell do Dreams and Nightmares come

From Heaven and Hell do Dreams and Nightmares come

A Poem by Robert Francis Callaci
"

dreamquests are for dreamers

"




Dreaming
a vision quest
surfing on a rainbow
I fall through the sky into a
Nightmare


Nightmare
twisted visions
the gates of hell open
I pray to God that I’m only
Dreaming

Dreaming
altered visions
a stairway to heaven
hell hounds bite at my heels… Damn this
Nightmare

Nightmare
a glimpse of hell
dark fire and pitch black night
asleep or awake I’m forever
Dreaming

Dreaming
of nirvana
embraced by nothingness
illusion an empty dream turned
Nightmare

Very well done! Cinquain chains, when done as well as you have, hold well together and are entertaining.

Nightmare
a glimpse of hell
dark fire and pitch black night
asleep or awake I'm forever

I like the to and fro of this. Reminds me of many of my nocturnal attempts at sleep. They don't come easy, but when they do I sometimes wish they didn't. Good work. Well done.
