Unlocking My Dream

Faucon's comment "This thought you share invaded much of my writing, and is perhaps a key to poetic dream" about my piece "The Greatest" inspired this:

Faucon's comment "This thought you share invaded much of my writing, and is perhaps a key to poetic dream" about my piece "The Greatest" inspired this:


My dream lurks

inside me,

overgrown

like a savoury garden

with grand watermelons

and pumpkins

that stand

as high

as a toddler.



But I have lost the key

to free my dream

somewhere

in the auspicious foliage

that holds my compulsion

to find it

and must be careful

that I do not deflower the garden

while I search.
