In Falling

In falling I dream of flying
No more and no better than that - a dream
A compelling hallucination held dear.
Because falling
is not the release they claim it to be
Confined within a cubicle
The snow ceases to soothe
And the winds whisper no more
Naked and vulnerable for all who choose to see
And belittle all my gaping fears
I've always dreamt of a honeyed death
But scent betrays me and I
trace only rot in my overcast grave.
In falling I dream of believing
That I will land in utopia
A heavenly site of peace and perception
But scarcely do I reach the ground
Then I open my eyes and discover
This hapless reality, so scarred and undesirable
And dying I nurture the fever in me
And disfigured I bear the whipping on my nails
And headstrong I refuse to heal the lacerations
And sinning the smoke vapours as one with burning flesh
And soulless I dance in a pool of bleeding madness
And smouldering I wreck and wreckage is me
In pleading I cease and ashes become me -
Me; still dreaming of falling...
