Sketches of a Dream
Stretching deformation of clouds by audacious desire,
firmaments of illusion to admire.
Rational texture of scientific declaration,
reflections in mirrored capacity for the nation.
The mighty ego and its desperation to exist,
relativities adapt to the chill of the morning mist.
Rising light of ambition,
the promised exchange towards others submission.
From the tower of ecstasy, that fragile height,
power of the merciless and all proud of might.
Winds of false hope the incomparable element,
hailing the imperfect pursuit in all contempt.
When air is not free and water does not flow,
the disembodied soul goes, for she does not know.
The illusions of the wicked to create permanent existence,
not realizing that perfection has no resistance.
Drawing emanation from the skies,
dreams in symmetry’s by the awaken eyes.
