Dead Of Night Philosophy

Yes, it is, that we all search for inspiration

And yes, as a result we find frustration

Only the answers can still

The driving force behind the will

And a deep sigh shall find creation

The rivers within achieve near boil

Strands of emotion hang in endless toil

Yet it stands as so

That only I can go

To cease creative seed’s search for thoughtful soil

Here it is, the chance for meaning to stay

The door stands open, inviting play

No move was made

Figure hid in the shade

Door swings shut, strikes down the day

Mind grows hot from over-use

Closed lights will send a friend to loose

Foundation must crumble

To keep wild spirit humble

Battlefront borders find sleepful truce

Note: This is an "Old One" and also one of the few that was actually published.

It was bittersweet. Although legitimate, it was still published by an organization that

published EVERYTHING they were sent and then tried to sell you shit like engraved

this and fancily inscribed that. Not exactly a scam but definitely misleading in a

predatory way.

Oh well, live and learn. Although I'm still trying to get the learn part right.

Another Note: I am well aware that there is no such word as "Sleepful". That said, I tried

"Healing", "Slumbering", "Sleepy", "Sleep-filled", as well as the obvious "Peaceful".

You'd think "Peaceful Truce" would work until you realize it's redundant. There is no such thing as a Violent Truce. The exception perhaps being anywhere in Afghanistan.
