You told me you dreamt of stars From before cave painters And ice ages Celestial You said you came from the time Before “Let there be light” When light and dark pooled And eddied together You said we could exist In an isolated state When even oil and water were in love And we are but atoms And you said We could run away from The ills and the joys and The businessmen clocking in on time But I am a cynic And a threw down your sonnets And your romance Because I’m not a dreamer

Barefooted Personified Sonnets
You told me you dreamt of stars From before cave painters And ice ages Celestial You said you came from the time Before “Let there be light” When light and dark pooled And eddied together You said we could exist In an isolated state When even oil and water were in love And we are but atoms And you said We could run away from The ills and the joys and The businessmen clocking in on time But I am a cynic And a threw down your sonnets And your romance Because I’m not a dreamer
