Dream Side

Is there an upside to the downside of life?

Not knowing, but knowing enough to know
nothing, I seek an answer.

Is there a voice besides my own?
A voice besides the voice that speaks
to my psychotic norm…

I dream there is, so there must be
a side that only dreams can see.

In dreams, I read the unpublished work
of Poe and Byron, seeking to find myself between the lines.

Sadly, I find nothing worth keeping beyond the moment.

you're in a deep place, huh? this was nice - got me thinking about the upside / downside of delving into past and future and about the pricelessness of the moment

Next time you dream, see what you can dig up on Shakespeare.

It is an interesting question you ask. It makes me think if there is another side of us: the one that dreams, because sometimes dreams can be far fetched and nothing we would venture into in our consciousness. I liked this poem very much, Lori; it left me thinking... and that could be dangerous.

Lori, an excellent thought-provoking composition, Poet. In life, I’ve found that one should never read between the lines, and one must be willing and able though to look beyond the moment in cheerful expectation to fulfill the sacred quest of one’s life. Thanks for sharing it. Take care.

Not knowing, but knowing enough to know

A truly perplexing part of human life - and I find myself doing this all the time - it truly can be quite frustrating - but we all keep muddling on somehow.

An extremely powerful piece, Lori.

Shrouded by Poets... A striking piece, Lori. I especially like this section:

"Is there a voice besides my own?
A voice besides the voice that speaks
to my psychotic norm…"

Psychotic norm...

Lori, if we never read between the lines?, we'd never clearly see anything!
I loved this!

An issue everyone asks at some point in their lives Lori, you will find the answer, life is full of reading between the lines.
A thoughtful piece,

"Is there an upside to the downside of life?"

- Once a dream is beyond the atmosphere, the answer could be, "metamorphosis or metenpsychosis".

"Dream Side" delivers an intriguing question and serves a flavored poetic meal.

I salute You, Sublime Poet!
