Delusions

They aren't dreams anymore
they are simply delusions.
     Bright lights in the eyes
opticalic occlusions.
     Green butterflies congregate 
on the cusp.
     Of something so beautiful
under the crust.
     Of worn out responses to 
yesterday's woes.
     You can't make a butterfly 
go with the flow.
