Dreamland

I met them all in dreamland
A foggy town
Sometimes colorful
But always perfectly clear
Always startling
Awake in a panic
Never able to fall back
But their words
Their voices
True to tone
Always ringing in my ears
Silk curtains
Iced tea
It was brown
Rusting jewelry
beaded dreamcatcher
roasting fire
heavy eyes
And seeing them
Meeting them
Makes everything better
Makes everything real
Even though it’s far from
But I’ll take what I can get
I’ll take dreamland.
