Because it stuck in my head, dreaming this; and what is a blog if not an experimental site?
I dreamt that I was dreaming.
The waves pulled me out; and I was unafraid, the ocean
vast, bottomless, as deep and meaningful as a kept promise.
I floated upright, arms extended, face lifted to the sky,
where a bright white sun shone over the whole world.
Come out.
I dreamt that I was dreaming, of waves that pulled me
out, pulled me under and then spat me toward the sky, up into the air, toward
the sun, where I threw my arms up, flung my head back and laughed.
I landed, surrounded by water, unafraid.
And I knew that I was dreaming – and decided that if I
were to awaken, I would allow the dream to continue rather than pause it,
rather than keep it only for myself.
