Was This Your Dream

Was this your dream?
Some wild restless imaginings
 that sing and dance a fantasy fantastic
 with the images once black and white
 to rise and swell in pastel delights;
was this your sinister plan
 to draw me in as easily as you can
 to become some cartoon figure portrayed
 in the highlight of your foolish ways/
Is this your dream
 the play on words of pretended themes
 where prince and damsel in distress
 find they are together in love's test?
Then let it play out
 the wisdom of the hopeful in doubt
 to live and die in the great imagined swirls
 to finally achieve the dreams of this world.
