Hwaet


I used to have this recurring dream…

There was
A hand that held a quill

That moved
In a visual

Stream – Writing words in gold -
Golden bold.

What?

They say

To enter a dream

Begins

With a study of the hand
Until the hand

Extends

Into dreamland

Orpheus
Into
Morpheus.

What?

Last night I slept
Writing in
Ink that wept

Across the page
Into

Depth
In
Depth

What?

Hwaet=Listen in Old English.

The last time I slept,
I was present in the dream...

I composed a piece
that had something like...

Otherworldy beauty.

It was like...

I spoke the words into existence...

And it just...  Flowed so organic...

And it was like...  As my mind architected the poem,
the poem architected my mind.

Configurations and Configurations.

I used to have this recurring dream
of a hand, holding a quill, writing rapidly, masterfully, in golden ink...

This seemed to connect to that...  Somehow.
