Wake up Sprint to burial grounds Pool around you let it be water Cards have spoken Don’t wait walls will advance Worlds will shrink ears will give way Cling to a cliché Kiss the poison as the antidote Speak expectations to listen Let fragrance engulf you Did you sleep?

Wish I knew what your are talking about. It sounds like it might be interseting.

It seems to mean something to me, if I read it thusly,

Wake up
Sprint to burial grounds
Pool around you
let it be water
Cards have spoken
Don’t wait
walls will advance
Worlds will shrink
ears will give way
Cling to a cliché
Kiss the poison as the antidote
Speak expectations to listen
Let fragrance engulf you
Did you sleep?

A poem of contradictions. Why not?
