Unreality, Again

new dawn on the horizon we know that the fantasies of the night will stumble into a cruel daylight unreality, however has its" ways of seeping into corners of the mind the stuff of dreams is a powerful vapor which intoxicates leaving little room for the heavy burdens of "Absolute reality" Our days pass by in a hurry litttle time to take stock of what we experience If you wish hard enough The sweet scent of the forest will allow you to Escape with a capital E which is the first latter of Energy, Enlightenment and Eternal

I could escape into the forest of unreality for a while everyday. I do have an escape route but it never seems long enough. Keep writing. Sara

Like your reference to "Absolute Reality," as opposed to the fantasy that we usually see around us. "The stuff of dreams" is truly a "powerful vapor" that makes its presence known throughout the following day. I sometimes wonder if those who are declared "mad" simply cannot separate dreams from absolute reality. Very interesting, Matthew, and good luck with your new book. My novel is proceeding - should be out in the fall. Love, Carolyn
