living doggedly in the present
the trick of the brain
differs from the trick of the soul
the former having to do
with mental calisthenics
the latter all about dreams
repetition goes a long way
toward mastering
the memory of dreams
always deep within
rarely showing their true colors
it is like a two-edged sword
this need for solving dreams
reliving past lives & futuristic skies
though seemingly forever
stuck in the present
january two thousand twenty-two
