DREAMS OF A SLEEPLESS NIGHT
He awakened from a sleepless night
dreaming he had been fast asleep
and in his sleep had dreamed a dream
but it was frayed about the edges
where it left off he could not tell,
could not remember distinctly.
He only knew that his dream sleep
was rich with landscapes beyond imagination.
He passed the time
cutting his life into slices
which, transfixed, he later reassembled
of an afternoon, awake while all around him
slept the sleep of bygone days.
Before his eyes he watched days file by
days that waved to him
from a downhill path to the sea.
He had stood motionless on the sand,
feeling not a twinge of boredom,
only the joy of dreaming a dream
of an evening, of a night
as he lay wide awake
looking on from the depths of calm
at a dream where he had played a walk-on role.
Such were the dreams he dreamed
on his many sleepless nights.
