Dream scape


I tied myself in knots
Caught in a maelstrom of clumsy thoughts
The headlines of other people’s ideas
merging with the unwieldy grammar of my oscillating beliefs

As sleep comes may I be gentle in my dreams 
Let the lucid self surge in an up swell of consciousness 
step towards gentleness
Take me on a tour of the milk beech wood
Swimming in deep caverns of compassion
until the tranquil dawn

In dream land the unknown shadow will reign 
Bubbling out of the cauldron of a boiling brain
Run riot, play and explore
Unbridled energy
Urgently you call from the loosened bonds of sleep
May this body decipher a lurid pattern of forgiveness
