[ night shadows ]
[ SLEEP HAS NO PROPERTY ]
Night came uninvited
Pierced through with stars
Its dream where
separate things
Hanging Above
Inside things hum
and whir
No calm at all
Sleep has no property
I heard him call
Night came uninvited
Brutal unloved
The moon crept uninvited
Over my sill.
To mock me with
Its learning
Unsavoury grin.
Inside I'd sweat
and strain.
No calm at all
Sleep has no property
As I recall
The moon came uninvited
Sallow and grin.

u write that, X?
-Nope...(but might as well have)
-As you can see, i usually put the author's names beneath the lyrics/poems inside little brackets, like this: ---> [...] :-P
...In this case it's not a poem, but a transcription of a D.D. track, quite weird 'cause the song is very uptempo and kind of playful, no melancholy or introspection at all...Until you listen to/read the lyrics.
-Nice as a poem alone by itself, i thought...:)
mmm...I was just listening to Inky Bloaters the other night...peerless stuff; pity she got logged down with all the Batcave fraternity: girl coulda been a contender... of course, she did have her moment of major label glory and blew it big time... needed some of Bjork's management I reckon... D.Dax for the next Olympics...
-Yeah!!!
She rocks big-time...
(John Peel famously refused to play any of her tracks!;)
EDITED:...the X's Inky Bloaters-copy does an "inky bloater"(mysterious disappearance)-shocker!!:-0
...just as you'd been writing this comment, Loki, MY copy strangely disappeared!- I couldn't find it in the shelf it'd been at!...Mmmmm, strange- have some obscure aether/timespace-distortions occurrences taken place, sucking the record into the non-cosmos and away from me?...I'm scared to think of the answer...It was there just some hours ago!-Life is truly and utterly strange...*clutches blanket and stares at the door frenetically,trying not to listening to weird noises emerging*
