Analyzing Dreams

The polecat swears out
mouthwise
into the wind
with pictures of the modern age
The future mechanized
Daily jive on television
Cheap eats
Cupcakes in the oven
A claw descends from Heaven
pulling the word pirate from the ash heap
Prayers of anti-repetition
The roll to revert
waiting for the dawn
in conscious insanity
listening to dreams talk about reality
bleeding from the shoulder
from the feet
hobbling around on a concrete floor
trying to avoid a decaying elk
with fears of gangrene
and some Hawaiian is waiting outside for hours
in an idling open aired vehicle
waiting for the future
but the house is a history of pain
littered with the refuse of insanity
and the little Mindhead cannot escape
from this family home
The dead grandfather sleeping nervously in a hidden room
will not wake up
Has the summer of this human life ended
or is just beginning
as the third symbol of habitual love
ascends into the void?
