To a Friend

To A Friend

Well, I can't say I don't admire you.
 Being a pillar of Reality.
- But if you're open to those of us
Who live half in the world of dreams,
I'd just like to say, it wouldn't be unwise
To develop some senseless addiction for yourself, 
To counterbalance all that stone.

The sea swallows the mountains, you know.
