Not waking dreams

 

Not waking dreams

 

Since I’ve stopped working

& moved to the country

& lived a quieter life

With less hyper-stimulation

Reduced media

& device use

& lived alone

(who knows which factors have greater or lesser influence?)

 

My dreamlife & my waking life have merged

 

I have vivid dreams

& later I’m unsure whence came the source

Of a message:

Was it someone or something in a dream or in waking?

 

The other question is: does it matter?

 

My anxiety about such uncertainties

Have diminished

 

If the message has piqued one’s intrinsic interest

Who really cares?

 

& so I have found a bridge between realms

 

Mammon’s world

Determines the importance of our waking hours

So we can work in worship of him

 

I’m also in touch

With a dreaming world

A world my ancient Irish ancestors

Knew well

 

Its culture is rich

Despite the colonizing attempts of Holy Rome & Britain

 

But really

I am but a man

A person

 

& at this depth of psychic regression

That my lifestyle affords

My midlife sabbatical

 

I am merely being

 

Not much more constructed

Than a domesticated animal

Close to species’ reign


When in their dreams

Or when the hunt is on

My dogs

Turn into wolves.

Win ugly

  Win ugly I win ugly for some bloody reason I win ugly Life’s like footy Playin into the wind Some days you act like you wish it was over Some days you get the word from the coach & you take it in your stride Though you know ur only D grade Who thought you could play ruck rover & play a ruddy blinder Who thought you had it in ya? Not even ur mother Where did that come from? For you to walk like a king who knew you could sing? About pawning ur weddin ring When ur alone You ain’t nothin but alone Just don’t scam yourself Though u can’t get any help Yes I win ugly I like it in the wet Like a 10 year old boy Drawing with a stick in the dirt Go in hard & you don’t get hurt But a wise man once scribbled The hard is overcome by the soft Like stone in water Like watching a child’s first steps One day in the sun Feelin so privileged to have been there How’d you get so lucky? Ya win ugly Ya win ugly Ya win ugly Worth the price of admission To this valley of tears Coz every now ...
