Dreamers in the ashes

Dust descends upon my extended palm

And although it means no harm

A sharp coldness  is what my sensory organs tell me I should be experiencing

I guess that's why they say to stay away from the awakening

Stay far away from the ashes and keep far from the trees

But I've been under them so long I can't deny it's my serenity

Ye, they ruin everything

But they are my peace and complete my evenings.



Wind touches my brown skin in a soothing kiss

Everyone is gathered under the trees and their bliss

It was the horn that brought us here

But most of us we were not willing volunteers

The altos came so symbolically

Their tune effortlessly and hypnotically

They grasped our bodies in time for the ritual

Showing us a world that is truly mythical



Our souls rip apart and it breaks down our barriers

They surge and fight to find new carriers

We must sing and do it authentically

If they like our song they would leave us completely

Amateurs tend to lose theirs

Their souls are snatched without care

They leave quickly and emit amber light spears

That envelop us from head to toe like mean stares



Eventually the light disappears 

Every summer they reappear

To choose a fresh dreamer 

Then diminish into ashes  in any demeanor

I will return to sing for my brothers and sisters

Hopefully next time they choose me as a willing contester
