Where is the tale today, lulled and pulled
from dreams more alive than life.
Would that daylight hours feel so real;
loss so tangible one can wrap it as a cloak-
happiness so intense,
a burbling brook of smiles and joy
made paler with dawns approach.
Where did I ere in this dimension,
to find street grime not as gritty,
eyes not as flowing, tears not as wet;
lemon seed poppy not so muffiny,
chocolate not my imaginings in fluffy cake;
how came dreams to me to be more of
life than open eyes
greeting what we call awake.

Where is the tale today, lulled and pulled
from dreams more alive than life.
Would that daylight hours feel so real;
loss so tangible one can wrap it as a cloak-
happiness so intense,
a burbling brook of smiles and joy
made paler with dawns approach.
Where did I ere in this dimension,
to find street grime not as gritty,
eyes not as flowing, tears not as wet;
lemon seed poppy not so muffiny,
chocolate not my imaginings in fluffy cake;
how came dreams to me to be more of
life than open eyes
greeting what we call awake.
