Dust of a dream

Dust of a dream swept out the door
Calloused mirror fractured broken
Wind caught on a nail, too blind to be poor
Time melted into yesterday\'s word spoken

Drunken day stumbles and falls
Tomorrow\'s hangover buried under my pillow
Each day\'s coffins charred under black palls
Dark clouds of menaced meaning billow

Vintage air bottled in mason jars
Two hundred proof, to sip only
A shadow held back by bars
Smokeless flame painted lonely
