just
beyond
his compass
ambitions lay
buried deep within long forgotten dreams;
then
the band
started up,
and he awoke-
seizing his chance,re-joined life's merry dance...

The upright straight road is clear
That may seems strait long road to the blind mind
The soggy soul wants to stay in the cool shadow
To eat and fart! Having pipe dream to win back!
To have a good time, I see I see me....

Deadly glares
Hollow stares
You don't like me.

Perfectly fine,
AWAY from mine!
I know that's only a pipe dream. 

Touch her not!
Have you forgot?
I can bring you to your knees. 

I hate you
You hate me too
(Good!) We have better places to be....

A supposition:
If one queries or answers:
'.., my love" in nearly innumerable conversational situations, one can experience soulful harmony previously thought mere pipe dream or malicious tease.
Try it.
Who says the best things in life aren't free, my love?...

Beginning voyage.
Cruel taunts of repeating meditate,
"Do I really have it?"
Finding out?
Step forth in the knowing.
Just a few dollars away,
Writing supplies at any Wal-Mart.
Heart?
Closed,
It only a pipe dream coming to a now end.
Opened,
Most definitely in the poetry journey-...

feeling rushes through this pipe-dream
gushing like the leak in Louisiana
leaking barrels and barrels of me
killing what surrounds as it bleeds

there is no fixing this enormous spill
it spews too fast, with its own will
Haliburton can't control the danger
 my heart the only thing endangered...

pipe dream 
false hope 
in a future 
together 
unrealistic 
irrational 
internalized 
rose colored 
clouds that 
cover up the 
truth of reality 
there is no hope 
for a future together 
now 
truly there was 
never ever any 
chance of a life 
time together 
it was all just a 
fantasy...

A wish, a hope, a wing, a prayer
   Be it fervent or fluidly flung in the air
Something to unite a divided nation
   To reflect our best, our deepest aspirations

And an orator to deliver it on an eagle's wing
   Ringing phrases to make our collective heart sing
Is there somewhere a voice, our vision to renew
   Or is this just a pipe-dream, nevermore to come true...

Back on Baker Street -
pulling on a calabash pipe.
Paganini and Bach stream through
a cracked third-story window.

The Merseybeat’s…
the disaffected Pink Floyd years,
Mary Jane brain, mulling over 
puffing magic dragons;
reading Sherlock Holmes
secretly.

Today, downloading
a picture of myself back then,
no pipe just a youthful smirk
as I strut down that busy road.

Sometimes I wish I still smoked....

The wind brushes her red mane wild and untamed, lifting her gown
A trance sweeps and sways her figure while bright orbs surround her
Transported to other realms where forestry scenes blend far away 
A wistful lean body revealed thru a sheer dress, she is lifted into thin air
As she twirls around to celestial sounds, with spirits she dances free
In this pipe dream phantasy I imagined it were me, on this blissful day...

I want to be an ornament when I grow up the mouse said.
Did he want to be on the side of green or red?
Holly voted for green Santa wanted him on his team.
The relatives laughed; grandma said that would be a pipe dream.

What if I just hung out in the tree and did not take sides at all?
He hung out happily in a Christmas tree shopping mall.
The youngster was wise, the oldsters in the family said.
For not choosing green and not choosing red....

The old man blows softly into his pipe
And the wind he blows floats seemlessly into the night
And is swells and grows as he calls to the light
But the darkness knows that his calling will never alight
It will start and stuck for its ghosts that he calls with his song
but the ghost don't hear they eloped with his love long before
And the ghosts just laugh and on his heart strings they pluck 
Raucous melodies brazenly running amuck
For they know that he in his memories is stuck....
