Dreams

Dreams,

windows the mind opens

on dimensions of metaphor

staging the surreal

not just while bodies sleep,

but between blinkin'

and noddin' in the sunlight,

slurping your caffeine, or

halfway through the "Wheel"

or an act on AGT.

So, stay awake,

paying attention

to the clouds of images

and sounds parading

through your mind.

Dismiss them not,

choose the pearls,

thankful for the insight.
