WINGS

WINGS


A nightmare has wings.
You sleep in the death camp
with tiny feathers on your face.
You wake up near the mineral pools.
A singer must paint her nightmare directly
onto the dream of her listeners
so it becomes the listener's dream.
And then rescue the dreamer
who wakes up wet with tears.

Chilling & powerful, Jo. The sense of dream within dream is particularly effective.
