It’s an odd thing, but
the best dreaming
requires a basic stability
And lately, see,
I’m off balance
My feet uneven
One foot forward, one back
Or is it
one up, one down?
Straddling a crack
a fissure
a chasm
Ready to leap into the unknown
and find it safety
Just say the word
(please say the word)
Until then my head
will be dreaming in clouds
and my feet
down there, somewhere,
trying to find a balance
on the ground.
