Humble thoughts leading

To misguided agony

Of lollipops that taste sour, I dream of

Streetlights that flicker and fall, I

Dream of descending down a familiar

Path, I dream of glittering rubies;

I dream of whispering words washing

Over me, I dream of snowy cliffs

With people at the bottom, I dream

Of serpents with ill intent, I dream of

Darts and arrows rushing by, I

Dream of harvesting an unknown

Crop, I dream of echoing melodies;

I dream of lemon suns and blades of

Spinach grass, I dream of panic

That is pink and poisonous, I dream

Of letters dipped in kerosene, I dream of

A pantaloon with moth holes, I

Dream of rowing a boat with banana

Leaves, I dream of skipping down the lane;

I dream of leg cramps that prevent

Moving forward, I dream of fluorescent

Pools of chlorine and nicotine, I dream

Of pennies in the cushions, I dream of

Crochet blankets to keep us warm, I

Dream of betting it all at a shady

Casino, I dream of floral nightgowns;

I dream of soaring on the wings of

A phoenix, I dream of library shelves
