Rushed Dreams

I danced by the yawning precipice

Heedless of the vertiginous heights

A fall into the abyss was of little concern

Better to soar with eagles

Dance on clouds

The morning sun obstructed my view

It was turning into a far out day

The caterwaul of angels heightened reality

And the dance of the jet stream lit dreams

Oh to be scaling the heights 

Finding heaven perched on a mossy bank

By the rushing dream

Where everyone was young and naked

And fear was something only in fiction

Tears of joy mingled with the warm rain

While the cold sun hid behind the dark moon

Such a strange and wonderful lunch

Feasting on these words

Lucky I was hungry
