The map of the city wrinkles and unfolds, wrinkles and unfolds.”

dedicated to the victims of the Holocaust
Dark is the night
I hear your heartbeat
In the room there is no light

Shrill screams shattered
I do not hear your heartbeat
Why is the light so bright in the room”

The sun came through the shuttered balcony and the coral of life opened its branches over my shrouded heart.”
“Night of the Broken Glass
dedicated to the victims of the Holocaust
Dark is the night
I hear your heartbeat
In the room there is no light
Fire in the night
I hear them marching
Your boots are brown
Glass in my thoughts
Hear the fear in this night
Shrill screams shattered
I do not hear your heartbeat
Why is the light so bright in the room”

“Night's Pleasure Veil by Stewart Stafford
A kiss, that beauteous wound,
Struck by love's yielding blade,
Feel the arrow's welcome strike,
As we roam in life's ecstatic glade.
Memories momentarily wiped,
As the lover's lips become parted,
Then at sea again in sensory squalls,
Where passion's spark first started.
A stranger interrupts adoration's swell,
Desire's mask of reality swiftly donned,
Vows to reunify in night's pleasure veil,
Longing looks, and the flames are gone.

“Night terrors are in deep sleep, and they're more common in kids, as are nightmares, but what happens in a night terror is like a flash - we think a flash of some image or something happens in the brain. We don't really quite know what. And it usually ends up with the child screaming almost like screaming bloody murder. It's very scary for the parents or whoever else is around.”
“Night terrors are very different from nightmares. A lot of people will think they're the same, but they're really not. Night terrors - you want to look at the time of night when you're having the problem. Night Terrors happen in deep sleep. Nightmares tend to happen in a lighter REM sleep.”
“Night"
The cold remote islands
And the blue estuaries
Where what breathes, breathes
The restless wind of the inlets,
And what drinks, drinks
The incoming tide;
Where shell and weed
Wait upon the salt wash of the sea,
And the clear nights of stars
Swing their lights westward
To set behind the land;
Where the pulse clinging to the rocks
Renews itself forever;
Where, again on cloudless nights,
The water reflects
The firmament’s partial setting;
—O remember
In your narrowing dark hours
That more things move
Than blood in the heart.”
