Years later…

She is refreshed by familiar smells after a tiring day - smells that take her back to student days. It’s the same track, same route and same sights from the window. She looks around in the compartment, and finds the commuter profile changed. People are glued to their devices, rather than chatting and playing games.  … Continue reading Years later…

Wounded

wounded soles walked on gravel A path chosen on her own robbed of dignity juked of power- She cared not for  voices that followed -just made a run for infinity It could be a pipe dream yet she knows she is changing for better… https://dversepoets.com/2021/07/12/quadrille-131-with-brian-miller/

The Dream Within a Dream

Dream within a dream’ ….by Atomic Mage

The Atomic Mage's avatarThe Atomic Mage


If in my dreams I may perceive myself to be

One who walks among gods and angels,

Or flies as free as the owl between midnight trees,

Or that I dine at the tables of the wealthy and elite,

That I love with all my heart famous kings and queens –

Then can it be true to say I have experienced all this

In an essence, as though I were fully awake?

And what if, when I awake, I suddenly understand

That the reality I inhabit is one where I stand

Among devils and thieves, that I am incarcerated

Like the canary in a cage against my will;

That I pluck bones from poor broth with fellow proles

The rooster says it’s 7 a.m. and I don’t care;
I’m just a happy frog looking at frog photos in my frog photo book, I don’t care;
the alarm was set for 4:48 a.m. says the rooster, as if I cared;
look at that frog on a VW camper van, I’m going to get one and I don’t care if that rooster says I’m a hippy, because I’m hoppy happy!
