Albert Reed Poet I do not know?

Dream/Vision

DREAM/VISION

Yesterday, I pondered all day long.
 *The dishes stacked higher and higher*
   Clothes accumulated everywhere
   No effort to set things in order
 *While dreaming I lingered why bother*

Today, I walked in vision.
 *Effort to set things in order was established*
   The dishes were washed and stacked in there
   place
   Clothes were cleaned and fit in their space
 *While walking in vision all lack was erased* 


Note:  A dream occurs when you are not moving. (Stagnant, Dead, Still) 
          A vision is a dream moving, for instance, the dream of Doctor 
          Martin Luther King forty years later is still moving today.
          Inauguration January 20, 2009 First Black President
          Obama Swore In.

Jim Fish June 30, 2009 at 11:18 PM Interesting clarification and a poignant analogy. Now that we have the black president card played, lets hope he can pull the right souls together to clean up this mess he's been left to deal with. It's looking go so far but it gonna be tough... like the piled up dishes and clothes, huh? Enjoy this... ~<><
