And to Sleep
and what we
sense if not
of our selves
or within this
space we contain
may be of
no thing touched
by one’s fluttering
eye as if
awake we see
even less the
dreams of course
real though we
hold them only
in our sleep

Musings on poetry, language, perception, numbers, food, and anything else that slips through the cracks.
O at the Edges 
A unique concept, a dream more vivid than reality.

I have often found dream vision to be intensely real. In truth, much of waking life is not as real as we think. You have expressed this beautifully. Thank you for a waking moment of real pleasure, Robert.

Beautiful. It is so interesting how dreams bring forth our subconscious thoughts and appear to be reality. It can be hard to distinguish the disparities at times.

They can be very powerful. I woke from a disturbing one last night, and was unable to sleep for several hours.
