X-raying the mind through dreams
Bubblegum wrapper and battery fires
Guide my way
Two skateboarding sisters greet me
Each holding diamonds with numbers
Etched on their side
That only my eyes can see
They open a book of naked faces
And say in unison
“Lies and deceit get folks far at first
In the land of the conscious
But they are of no use here
In the land of the unconscious
Truth is all that works within this world”
I awake momentarily
To the sound of
Dog claws clicking on the wooden floor
It sounds like a typewriter
In my exhausted state
The dishwasher moans and hums
As it gargles and discharges
Dirty water from its plastic insides
Then
Back asleep I go!!!
A woman sits on the edge
Of a ship’s railing
The ship tilts slowly
Back and forth
Like a metronome
She’s wearing an all white dress
Her big eyes are looking off to the sea
She says, the waves remind her of
Mountain top cliff drops
She then coughs a key up
Into her mouth
Handing it over she whispers
“There was nothing more than a sunset
Nothing more
Than the beginning of night
The beginning of everything
When one awakes in a dream”
It seems
Inactivity brings the most activity
When eyelids shut for sleep
