Yesterday's Dreams

Yesterday's Dreams.

Rolling thunderously into our night
yesterday's dreams wrap themselves tightly
around tired hearts, 
casting their cords they latch on to tomorrow
and discharge unyieldingly 
with dynamic insight

but do dream on.

Dreams refuse to take second place,
using any means they whisper their state 
into our as yet faceless 
but personal aura and insist on early booking 
us for extensive renovation
by working with fate

yet do dream on.

Regarding itself, rather inanely 
as indispensable, yesterday's dreaming stays
not in retreat but hatches 
a carefully planned survival package which is
a clever technique to outdo despair
by vigourous regime

now do dream on.

Never to be disregarded, these
welcome fantasies give a much heartier taste 
to a sub-mundane week, 
for yesterday's dreams are but there to allay 
dangerous future fears by bravely 
bearing the heat of today

so do dream on
