Neuro Logical
Ephram Pratt Fails at interpreting his dreams - Jack e Lorts
Living in his dreams
was always a challenge,
the instant gratification
of the unreal,
of afternoons spent
in tracking
the mental undercurrents
of what never happens,
of too many markets
feeding into the sideshow,
reminiscent, somehow,
of his moral
and spiritual failings
brought on at youth.
He was troubled
by those around him,
harbingers of
what he didn't understand,
what he sought to know
but still remained
just outside the
cornerstone of understanding
he knew was there:
just below the surface,
indefinite as dust,
midnight seeking silence.
