Notes About The Poem
I was reading a german poem by M Piekar about a similar subject titled Wenn mann im seichten Traum faellt.
I wanted to write along this line and this is what eventuated.
Slipping Sleeping Gently
Too elevated for sleeping
I crave agape' pleasure
Totally slipped up
Down I go
Tripping on dream steps
Each one with its own
Pleasure and pain
But good pain
Falling as in the season
Into you deeper
Ever closer to the bottom
REM, the flicker of it
Toggles between here and gone
With hands beyond, outside
Morbidity I grasp a melancholy melody
A still small voice of reality
You whisper " I love you, sleep good."
