Narcotic Nightmare
Channel: edvagg
Date: 2014-12-13

Partially robotic 
the new ball and socket hip joint 
tolerable only with a narcotic. 
Synthetic morphine made for painless rehab 
and nightmares lucid. 
Nightmares of famished farmlands
Tired and hoofed. 
Soiled soil, 
down trodden sods  
tractor raked, sunburnt brick baked. 
To tired to grow anything. 
"Weed on Brian, round em up". 
"No telln where the no tillens go'en" 
Weed on brine, dust is fly'n 
at the end of the day it won't even make hay. 
rolly polly blows and rolls with the dust in a wind gust
bleeting sheep moving with the soil creep. 
Earths blooms reduced to sand dunes. 
Dusty moons, no nightbird tunes 
only the radio goons waking me. 
With a lucid recall, I see it all
Prophesy or lunacy
We rise to fall.
Only the dunes stand tall.
