Poem that speaks about the myriad inner workings of the dreamer |
.........DREAMER!!........... DREAMER!!..(said forcefully)...........are you a harm? What reflection have you upon your charm? Is what you see, that which is not? Only dis.............entangled thought? When you ride your flying shovels high above the ground Or drive your electric clothes dryers into and through the town, Do you wonder if your mind is sound?? DREAMER!!..(said scoffingly)......do you stand so far apart? Were you woke this morning with a start? Did the things you saw jumpstart your heart? Was the horse behind the cart? Were you lost inside your art? DREAMER!!..(said quizzically)..........do you remember when, You were scared and no one cared. When you were magical, mystical, Emotional, elliptical As you jumped through hoops of someone's typical...... ......commands? DREAMER!!..(said laconically)...........are you for real? In your act of seeing things you cannot feel Have you struck a morbid deal? Lost and found, Choked and bound, Free from any real sound Like the fox chased by the hound Are you only going round....... .......The wheel? DREAMER!!..(said apprehensivley)......what about the mirror? Is that something you should fear? What if looking deep inside You see that which you know must hide. What rule then........ .......will you abide? DREAMER!!..(said wistfully)..........you are complex The muscle of that mind you do so flex, That some of us you can perplex Like doctor's hammers.....the little pecks We wonder, worry......what might be next? Your things you see, are not in text We cannot read, we cannot test We must endure your mensa jest. DREAMER!!..(said disgustingly)......why do you complain? It is you who makes your pain Thinking thoughts so very plain Measured out against the grain Of Humanity's sanity Sans.......sans.....sanity You have your vanity Only you...... .....complain DREAMER!!..(said with authority)......NOW PAY HEED! You must from now, turn thought to deed Mankind is lost and much in need Of honest acts thrown out as seed The world is not that which it seems It has stayed upon your dreams Like mental, tangled, twisted beams It's chaos built from insane means DREAMER!!..(fadingly)..do not worry my friend You are a sturdy, worthy blend This advice I to you lend Do not worry............. .....................ACT!! |
