I Dream of Worlds
I dream of worlds
afoot,
more dangerous
than I can imagine;
for when I merely imagine them
I'm am still firmly astride
the horse of my desires.
But, when I dream,
that is different.
When I dream,
even the well of death
has been poisoned
and I learned to drink
shadow from deserts
that stumble.
