Cinema of the Mind

Corporeal becomes
incorporeal, again
we partake of another 
brief journey 
through astral planes 
of madness
where abstractions parade
like a bizarre circus 
in our subconscious. 

Bright lights beaming, 
streaming through
jasmine incense and
clouded multi-colored 
dancing paisley swirls. 

Reach out and touch 
gossamer clouds 
as you glide freely
over lands unknown
where insights lay hidden 
like mysteries, waiting 
to be uncovered. 

Stirring ethereal 
melodies 
never remembered
afterwards, along with 
insatiable tastes causing 
salivary responses, 
perhaps placations of 
waking repressed desires.

Brain’s synapses 
electrically firing  
in synchronous symphony,
projecting energy
like a powerful laser
beaming into the universe
beyond Heaven’s gates
until we realize that;
we must return to reality.
