Dream Jinni
27 Apr 2000
Dream jinni; come throw your dust
Shadow lovers await my hand
To waltz me down bright lanes
And tend to my aching emotions
That erupt into this diaphanous world
Where life is transparent
Gossamer love becomes meat
Hearty and fulfilling
And tears are from joy
Never from pain –
Where ghosts of my heart
Come embrace me again
And place longing kisses upon my lips
And tremble me to ecstasy
With hands and mouth
And love so clear –
I am faire dust floating
This life naught but a waking hourglass
Tedium until I can return
Sleep beckoning my heart
Soul safer in dreams
Than ever in reality –
These brimming emotions that
Awake – leave weak
In dreams – give me all I could need
Of hope and love –
Come, dream jinni, throw your dream dust
To whisk me to gentle loves
And fearless nights –
