On Dreams/Day 13

A poem I wrote on dreams.

Dreams

When you're unsure and

your dreams seem captured

in another land, set out for

a journey to find them,

invite your feet to take you

there where you can fight

the beasts who have taken

your tongue, your hand

your heart hostage.  Invite

yourself to rage, to assert

how your new life warrants

dreams.  Then with a swipe

of the blade sharp into the

enemy, send them cowering.

Notice your dreams, sleepy-eyed

and weary appear from this

foreign land prison.  Take them

by the hand, one by one, and

tell them you love them and

carry them home.
