The day's themes in twisted dreams
Where reality can't come find me
A sunrise in my darkest hour
All that is, was, or will be
A place to sink my sunken dreams
Or mend them if I will
Anything my heart desires
This place of peace can fulfill
My coldest summer day
My warmest winter night
The brightest of my darkest days
The darkest of my bright
A love that never happened
Or one that someday could
My place to hold the things I want
And say the things I should
What's so lucid while I'm sleeping
Becomes surreal when I awake
The blurry morning sun that rises
My subconscious it shall take
This decided world remains
My sleepy thoughts drift on
Oh, how I hate the morning
And this thief that I call dawn
My day controls my night
And decides my twisted dreams
So, do the dreams I have control my day
Or is that just how it seems?

Anyo
I am depth. I am emotion & thought. I am nuance and idiosyncrasies inside of, or rather comprised of, an unimaginably huge number of atoms. I'm the same thing that you are, only arranged differently.

Public Announcement Challenge Winners
For the Public Announcement Challenge, writers were asked to work inside voices built for control. These were notices, warnings, and updates meant to inform rather than confess. The strongest entries committed to that form and didn't break from it. Corporate memos, formal government alerts, and internal policy language were held consistently, allowing emotion, fear, grief, or humor to surface indirectly through pressure rather than declaration. The following poems recognize the voice of authority, and let human feeling slip through despite all its rules and restraint.
