Here is yet another of my poetic stream of consciousness pieces derived from a poetic comment I left at another friend’s poem. I took that comment of mine as a seed, and expanded it into this now fully bloomed piece, illustrated with my art.

In a Dream a chance encounter,

Unleashed spirits of culture counter.

Dashing hopes of those who’d thwart,

The very slumber they dare abort.

Perhaps I’d say fortuitous purport,

Might yield a destiny of some sort,

And liven Dreamer to lucid state,

Spawning cogent power to regulate.

And once the Dreamer knows the Dream,

No checks constrain the psyche gleam,

The Dreamer reaches out to hold,

Command the Dream, lucid and bold.

While unrestrained imagined flights,

In which the Dreamer then delights,

Embrace the Dream’s ephemeral core,

Conceiving quintessence forever more.

    Nice poem.

    What the **** is this Anjalina? Some kind of annoying bot? Almost the same comment was left on one of mine articles too. I though it was someone who has nothing to do and did not even read the article I wrote. But, comment like this on poem?

  • Bill M. Tracer on Jul 25, 2010

    Ah, Michal, I thought Anjalina’s odd comment was amusing. At first I found it a bit perplexing, then I just got a chuckle out of it.

    So thanks, Anjalina for grin and laugh.
