frightening clarity

the head suddenly detached
as the body soundly sleeps
travelling the world
in his mind
the only way at this moment
thinking about those
who just go
nothing holding them
to any one spot
he is tied to the rafters
of the ceiling high above
he is not done
and cannot have what he wants
motion as the body moves slightly
pulling him back to some reality
wondering what it means
as it happens torn opposing forces
running horses tied to them
ropes digging into flesh
with each fiery step
silence as the mind
rejoins its partner
in a moment of complete
confusion and frightening clarity
and morning arrives…
