Dreams
Tell me about a dream, coherent or incoherent, surreal or mundane.
Just tell me about those dreams
Portent
A kitten came to visit me
Fur an ebon clarinet
Eyes silver, knowing, key
Its meek mewl a minuet
Each night it came,
Times three
The same
You see
Tiny head slipped under
A still locked door
Along the floor
Paws soft,
Piercing claws unsheathed
My world pulled asunder
My heart tearing thunder
It climbed the blanket
Of my bed
It brought hope
I thought it said
Or the rope
Of playful trinket
A junket
A journey
Or was it warring
With fate
As I lay snoring
At any rate
Life was boring
Safe
Awake
I ponder portent
Should I take
A chance
Be transformed
Or be content
To live stale
Stagnant
Frozen.
