shadows
places I have never been
emerge in my dreams
not once but several times
a deep tunnel rising
mostly smooth, some steps
peopled by unknown shadows
purposes seemingly so real
but completely undefined
yet it doesn’t seem strange
bizarre accepted as unexceptional
I realise I’m often weightless
I can bound along with steps
twenty feet high, twenty feet wide
sometimes it feels as though
I’m picking up where I left off
in a dream months, years ago
I wonder what it signifies
if anything: but I have no answer.
