The Insidious Insomnium
A young dream with the mind of uncertain care
Once sudden sight on the tedious painted life fair
From scold of solemn night and vitreous glare
There is huge mirror guard in heart longing rare
Insomnium is a dilemma of vague dreams pass by
The gusty blaze whorls into mind with unread phi
The full of often and rotten pictures in nerves way
With hobbles and gobbles of the tired tints of try
For none in far sea of dreams a boat belies on drought
Could be sunk by an envied stream of insidious thought
So the cliff also pauses the streams and throws on boat
Thus the shore of unsure goal thrills it as sneering a lot
Encircled frame of distinguished filter tears with a sigh
That was a wrought like sound with a hammer of whine
Demanded of the silent lashing children in mind's shrine
As upon the hills misty clouds would hide a darkened line
