Zoltar Speaks

 "Zoltar will give you a lot of wisdom
Age is simply a matter of mind
If you don't mind my friend, it doesn't matter
Be careful like a little baby"
AVAM Baltimore Zoltar Machine 
[according to the article "Wisdom From Zoltar" Huffpost.com]

Dreams are bizarre
And yet they possess 
Wisdom at times and
A deeper self awareness.

In a somewhat distorted
And shadowy place
A limelight beamed
On Zoltars face.

Out of nowhere
A mechanical voice boomed
Zoltars purpose
And to his face I zoomed...

He will "give you a lot of wisdom
Age is simply a matter of mind
If you don't mind it doesn't matter
Be careful like" baby kind. 

The hand of stranger
Rested on my shoulder
I dared not turn to see them
Though I wished I had been bolder.

"Insert your coin,' he whispered
'Let's see what he has to say!"
I nervously slipped it in through the slot
And waited anxiously for his voice to play....

"Challenges lie ahead for you
But you need not fear.
You are stronger than you think.
Your reality will become more clear.
How you face your future
Rests within your might 
 Wether you think you can or
Think you can't, you are right.  
The Tigers Eye is made for you
Wear it always and you'll find that you
Will have the courage, conviction and focus
To make your dreams come true." 

Suddenly I was in the dark
The whisper said as it faded away
"The rest is up to you, my friend.
I've nothing more to say."

I awoke quite startled,
In a daze and much confused.
So as usual, I researched my dream.
Back to Google, as was used.
