Sleepless Garden

Brian Looney

    Long walkways on the cushioned earth, poppies line the rows, winds fluffing, reeds singing. Silent motion, seconds purging, porous sponging. And the ground’s no longer hard.

    Moving in the gardens; moving with a purpose. That relentless voice, the images that keep me up. Fatigue affects the innocent, the little things that sleep. My sins are pride, envy, and wrath.

    Long walkways, contemplative and full. Nothing interrupts; my steps don’t even clatter. We are alone in our solitude, half-awake together, on the fringes of a troubled cult. I’m still young, I remind myself, but time remains a foe.

    One more lap to think things through, revisiting lost regrets, laying ghosts to rest. They must slumber first, the howling, rattled horde.
