Semaphores from the Chaos (Free verse) by cyan9

And Oh how I had begged for heaven's help, And Oh how I had been abandoned here. Averting my gaze from the usual oncoming barrage, The waves of greyscale portraits, pixelated visions, Flash shots of landscapes made from acsii characters. Neural pathways developed to match patterns in this place. In brief patches of darkness and respite from white noise That dominated and held reign to my senses, Confused and played games with me, I found another world further within. Gasping and gargling on soapy water, The planet where I had been, Just appeared as a tiny speck In the floating stars, The distant galaxies. I was back again in my bathtub, Back from the lure of my dreams. Recollecting the days events That lead me to this reprieve I remember now submerging, Calming the breathing, Down into Sleep. I had been going here for weeks now, But never had I quite been for this long In the shade where I had found myself this week. I slowly became alured to tilt my head back Beneath the suds, back into my sunken dream.

Silly, pedantic me. It's still misspelled.
