Dionytical Dreams/Osirian Sleep

Eyes look down from moral peaks

where Dionysus stands alone

and only chained links separate

my world and his from theirs and yours


My tin can song sings slow and weak,

inside me lives a child with dreams

As love is leaving flesh and thought

Osiris watch as children sleep for peace


Command Vox: honor our kingdom,

we seed our royalty from sin

Although he’ll never let you stay here

perhaps he lets you in to drink


My fingers curl these metal knots,

seek rumored gates to adjent halls

I once thought: bliss to be included,

now he won’t let me leave at all


- Afton Light, 2022
