In the apartment where the dreams of past live

The night sky of sleep

was ebulliently psychedelic,

specs of colors, yellow, brown, red,

created an ancient language

that spoke, secrets of a forbidden past,

 

The helicopter crept through,

the sky, tearing the canopy

of lights momentarily,

landed on a high rise apartment of dreams.

 

                                Now, after all these years,

difficult to remember,

who lives where;

aren't we somnambulists,

without navigational aids?

 

I would suddenly wake up

from one dream

                             within another -

 

soft touches of tender fingers,

sweet whispers in my ears,

soft light spreading its palm on an exposed shapely breast,

                                                                  I'll sense a disquiet,

a sigh, the pangs of a weeping heart, incidental results of

a life of passion, strife and agitation,

getting ****** by currents,

diving deep in to swirling waters

                                                              

 

                                                                In a dream, a young woman,

                                                                standing on a podium, in a class room,

                                                                teachers in a trembling voice

                                                                how to appreciate poems:

                                                                "From beyond light years,

                                                                 comes our grief..."

                                                                the scene dissolves in to mist.

                                      

                                            silence!

 

 

I am an yellow moon,

she is the pale mist circling,

we are in an embrace, momentarily,

                                         in a dream

in the jeweled bed of the night sky.
