I live in Oz
Dorothy ran across her sepia tone land
So returned from a fabled technicolor
Real world was via two tone shade
Wind knock to dream world other
Opens a door to a rainbow side
Her sky was in black and white
My dreams are an old film stock
Living in the real technicolor pop
Then sleep walk in a noir gracious
Blown across unto the unconscious
My sky's are color of the rainbow high
I must live on the Oz side
So dreaming in the real life

This was my first favorite as a child. I take this piece as I took the movie back then; man that bleak world Dorothy lives in seems similar, despite the lack of color -_-

The ancient Hindu teaches we originate from our dreamland and walk in sleep in the conscious world. Some never wake from either.
Thank you very much for the read.

Tis interesting...
Some dream in color,
others in black & white...
It is my understanding
that most do not dream in color...
And even fewer in...
Technicolor...
(It would be interesting to
explore the DMT connection to dreams...)
But yes...
This is deep...
Speaking to the concept of constructs,
in my perception...
(A bit earlier...
I went outside...
Realizing it was raining...
Pausing these Samsung noise canceling earbuds...
I stopped, a moment of meditation...
I thought of the idea of constructs and our dreams...
Constructs of paradise...
Like...
I was thinking of someone...
They have a passion for MJ...
They go through this crazy journey...
Get to a place where they
sort of...
Locate their Bodhi Tree of meditation...
This being a construct of a dream...
To me...
The best is that which dissolves the material...
I like hacking the system...
Also...
Well, there are other reasons...
But yes...
Me...
I definitely live in OZ...
*. *. *
I am constantly in awe...

Perhaps, those of us that day walk in shade of color are self adjusting our own perception as a defense mechanism or other response to the evil intent we find in "Kansas". Our dog is always in danger of being pickup by the spiritual deceiver that roams the wasteland of reality. An armor against the willful jive turkeys trying to steal my sandwich...
