Shall I too Fall Asleep?

Some people tell me I am dramatic. In moments that mean more than they could comprehend! Bewildered by the dreary sleep those are caught in who tell me this, and who could not catch a star if it was bite sized and floated before them before going out. Similarly, they do not seem to grab moments and feel them at the most vital of times.

Feeling this world and emotion intensely. Where are spirits that conjoin in sorrow, lifting one and the other up? We go alone, because the blindness surrounding. Shouting steadily in the blackness of night, and howling at wanderers, till the reverberations twist and bend, stretch and scratch and screech. Shall I too fall into a long deep sleep. . . .

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Dominique Johnson is a writer and author of The American Minervan created years ago and changed from its first iteration as Circle of Asia (11 years ago), because of its initial Eurasian focus. The change indicated increasing concern for the future of their own home country. He has spent many years academically researching the deeper philosophical classical sources of Theosophy, Eclecticism and American Republicanism to push beyond current civilizational limitations. He has spent his life since a youth dedicated to understanding what he sees as the “inner meanings” and instruction in classical literature, martial philosophies, world mythology and folklore for understanding both the nature of life and dealing with the challenges of life.
