Mandarin Trial (Free verse) by cyan9
I awoke from my slumber to the warmth of day.
Sunlight scattered 2D planes like glass panes through the room,
Cutting through to illuminate fragments of stars in the dust.
I lent forward and started to open the curtains,
Time stood still and after minutes within a split second
A irridescent wave of serotonin charged light burst through me.
I lay back into the sheets to curtail the rushes,
I lay back into the sheets, helpless to the bliss
Helpless, and paralysed in pleasure beyond all limits.
Powerless and limp to this Elysian outburst
I began my descent back into the pillows
Deeper down into my sleep within this world.
With jolting limb I awoke again into the warmth of day,
Sunlight scattered this time in celestial patterns,
Stars rebounded and I lay perplexed & confounded.
I fell back through the duvet, back through the mattress
Back into another world between the seems,
Panicked and begging to know of what fate awaited me.
Into a sunlit glade I was released.
Shards of light ricocheted off every tree,
Dew trickled down from forever green leaves,
I lay there, alive and paralysed within
