Dyeing The Blue Book

Real Dream

Real Dream

[[Burn]]ing day: set a[[light]]
by how we danced last [[night]],
feeling you right [[here]], held
against me while we moved
as one.

You kissed me then,
deeply,
while we danced and kissed
and held the night,
for I know [[now]],
we can[[not]] [[be]] together.

This [[self]]-exciting Reality
wants separation,
so I give up
my desire for small [[love]]
and spend this little [[time]]
learning how to fly,
and why [[heaven]] has boundaries,
and how to be with trees
or body surf [[blue]] clarity.

Before two final bows
and the end in our beginning.
