Two/Way Glass

Dreams can know us better than we know ourselves, for they are always watching. Would be nice to understand them as they understand us.


Poem Artwork

 Two/Way Glass

 

Some dreams dart off

like scared minnows.

 

Other dreams circle our minds,

round and round in our heads.

 

Seemingly meeting our eyes with their eyes, 

     they be capturing us instead.

Succinct but powerful in stating what dreams can do. I agree, Diana. Dreams are fascinating. I love them. Some are so "real," I sometimes have to take a moment or more to get back to "reality." Nightmares, which I do not get very often, are quite another "story." Love, peace, and blessings to you, Diana,

Regis. 🙏🐬✌💛⛄

So true. Especially of late, I've experienced the reality of dreams transcending the reality of daytime consciousness. Perhaps it is but an anomaly of the moment, but the eyes you speak of are very prevalent. Might it be that the recharging that nocturnal slumber has been proven to achieve is a more telling piece of the now than that of the day. Loved this concise suggestion of capture of the unexpected.

Dreams as scared minnows: brilliant. That's what they are

Round and round in our heads: Indeed, that's what they do (when we remember them).

Meeting our eyes with their eyes: Yes, we are the witnessed, they the witness.

Of such stuff, poetry is born.
