Dream 4/7/07

I’m not alone.

Hold my hand and understand

the heat of the earth

pulsing beneath our feet

as it revolves around the sun

that shines brightly giving us life

in our breasts when we touch

when we kiss, when we stare deeply

the beat continues.

The sidewalk grows upward

and outward in vines and earth

The stone and mortar breaking from the ground

Ribbons and light wind around

me as you’re far away and near.

Breathing your first and your last words like the day we met

I won’t forget-

Us, embracing until the infinite halves between us

finally meet and we can embrace no further.

Then we embrace some more.

Zenos was wrong there is no paradox in us.

You are old, you are young

You and I, we’re the same.

It’s strange because you’re real

but I’ve never met you in waking hours

The ghost of my dreams as beautiful as you seem

to be. I wonder if I’ll ever see you

before I turn in at days’ ends.

I rise and fall and rise

once and for all to get the day going on its feet.

I’m alone again until with closed eyes we meet.
