IT WAS LOST IN A DREAM by Wayne Russell

And so does sing
that starry night
that lilt of your voice
of angels transposed
and galloping headlong
into interceding muse
Out here now, where the
shadows lie upon the earth
so cool to the touch
mockingbird song scattered
throughout catacombs of
thunderstorm exile
A heartbeat echoes’  
in the throes of
an estranged lullaby
the morning may dawn
for someone else.
