There would be no reality without dreams. It is based on dreams.


Tangent to a Dream



Tangent to a Dream

Like a dervish dancing
Cleanse or decline
Collapse or deify

Or sailing a felucca
Fending off every higher wave

He could make the path
He went on a quest
And from the quest a dream
And a dream feasible.

And so ask the longing:
What in life
Is tangent to a dream
If one flounders?

The depraving dervish
The demur in the dance
A felucca in the flood
Show fate to be flimsy

Unless
One finds life
To be tangent to a dream
