we travel but in dreams, while safe
at home
made of sights that are not seen and
sounds that are not heard
there are no buildings, no streets
where people walk alone and separate
no stores where folks buy endless
things they do not need
Wake Up
senseless substitutions, touched
with insanity
and swirling lightly off on a mad
course like feathers dancing in the wind
they have no substance, dipping and
turning till they disappear from sight
into the nothingness from which they
came
Wake Up
Love always answers
it hears the cries of pain that rise
to it from every part of this strange world you made
but do not want
we've walked the way of dreams to a
darkness so unreal
not afraid of love, but only what
was made of love
yet either one will seem as real as
the sum to which you hold it dear
