Once in a nighttime - automatic writing.

 ONCE IN A NIGHT TIME

Once in a night time

deep within, we could see

But so many so oblivious

will never know

their fondest dream

their deepest fear

was our invention

Tiny hope – (The mask we pretend we've never seen )

was crafted by only us

in time that no other passes within

but us

Their petty lifetimes and achievements

will be the extent of their capacity

And on and on

We’ll paint their dawn

and take their spawn

and soon be gone
