Dream a little. Dream
a lot for lots are not what they seem. Dream
eyes wide open to see what you could be. Dream
eyelashes into butterflies and dream
oceans into puddles. Dream
tears into sutures and dream
laughter into tourniquets, let them
stitch you up and keep you alive
when the world blows through you
and tears at your seams. Dream
movement into muscle. Dream
plans into performance. Dream
maybes into momentum and ever-building steam. Dream
moment after moment til they slow into lava flows. Dream
time into a forest and get lost among the trees. Dream
love into a meadow and meet the blossoms like bees. Dream
the petals. Dream
the pollen. Dream
the nectar into honey and honey into hive into home into hope
that your dreams keep us alive
a little longer to dream
one more time.
