The Dreamworld
(“Peyote Dreams”, 2018, original encaustic)
The Dreamworld
I admit it
My preference is for the dreamworld
Over the waking one.
And that’s not to dis those
Who are near and dear to me in waking life.
Waking life is great,
It’s just the dream world is better,
More intense, amplified and quite frankly
Filled with more interesting beings.
Why is that?
Well, I’m pretty sure it has nothing to do with me.
I am after all merely a receiver who receives,
And what I receive is the world of dreams,
Vast, inconceivably vast, timely and timeless
Magical, mundane, mine and mineless.
