sleep/dreams

sleep/dreams

spectral fantasies
appear in forms of
dreams
fecundity ~~ firing neurons

proliferous images
in icon -- fetish -- portrait
and portrayal
all playing between ears at midnight

creations in no holds prohibited
realm
of light -- dreary dark
terrifying and breathtaking

barbaric edifices
calm beaches
roaring winds
spate of storms – unforgiving

division of reality/fancy
-- blurred
flattering scenes unrepentant
flicker in mind's scintillating façade

while watcher knows or
doesn't know it
is merely
a dream

fading almost to forgetfulness
upon waking
itching on fringes
of evanescent shroud

with no way to scratch
wondering if it were a
reflective -- mirror-like truth
or mind at play

away from daily wakefulness
of grey world
of work and woe
reaching for peace.

Victor, nice to see you writing again! Frankly, these images are nightmarish. Vivid descriptions.
