Dreams

                                                           

                Dreams are my affliction; they disease me

            Dreams drown me, fill me with sweetness

            Then disown me

            Rheumy dreams, lucid…pap solid

            I stir through

Storied dreams…folktale’s pleasure

            Agony of myths

            Bewilderment of legends

            Across these firmaments

            Reign I over Celestials

           

            Dreams, the writer’s ink

            Fuel this train of thought

            Oil this frenzied brain

            Let its engines steam vapour down

            And redefine gravity

           

Dreams; weapon of immortals

            Titan treasure, dialect of gods

            Dreams; a fool’s folly

            Rendezvous of soul and spirit

            Where Utopia opens…and Hades too

            Dreams; I dare dream

This chatter; dreams shatter

            New life, barter me.
