  Dream or Nightmare?

  by compound complex in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have reached a frontier dreamt about as a child -- the outer reaches of a vast realm under stars.. though an imaginative and inquisitive lad, my forward-looking mind and open heart could never have conjured up this fabulous, this infinite unreality into which i have been catapulted.

  what may appear a distortion of my former reality i tentatively accept as a cosmic tableau that threatens both to fascinate and crush my frail, puny body and spirit.

  i am unable to comprehend what i gaze upon with frightened, delicious terror.. my recent escape from lunaria was of sheer necessity: my people have been overtaken by a scorpion race of alien malefactors whose intent toward us was not one of beneficient intervention but that of conquest.

  Good night, dear humbled:

  Yes, I do try to create a mood.

  I really was describing my place, where I have to bus my dishes from a makeshift, waterless kitchen to the bathroom wash basin. Sometimes, the dishes stack up . . .

  Best wishes.

  Thank you, LisaRose, for such welcome comments!

  I believe you're correct, myself having read somewhere that poets explain and interpret the meaning of life's happenings.

  Peace be with you.

  He never stops, rip!

  I forced my shoes, leather jacket and cap on and braved the newly arrived cold and damp.

  I walked to my favorite spot and gazed shiveringly at the fog-enveloped mountains and trees -- those ghostly specters -- and perceived my childhood home beneath the actual lay of the land. Wishing there were someone with whom to share this natural beauty of intermingled present and past, up saunters a dear neighbor. A kindred spirit. He tuned in to my words; he understood.

  This is the day-to-day fare from which dreams of the subconscious arise.

  Creation.

  THANKS!

  So shaken I am: heart and mind and soul combine and find their mix, with paint, on board. Beaten down for so very long that it took by storm my stumbling spirit to perceive I had soared. You said -- so adamant you were -- that putting brush to board was a hobby, little more. "Dare to dream further, you'll receive no support from me . . . get to work and scrub that floor!"
  
  I must eat, that's true, yet you insist that I cannot dream; you call me an inveterate fool. Good for me -- it was not my choice -- I've been freed from job and you and gone back to school.

  .........although sometimes slight differences.. bear in mind i am in the uk and we don't go a bundle on therapy and i can't afford it anyway.. here is the dream manifest content as best i can recall.............. i am in a town or city.

  i come across a shop which inside is more like an indoor market, sometimes a cavern.

  it sells marvel comics.

  Thanks for sharing, punk!

  Hope you get a satisfying resolution to something so intangible yet real.

  As a little boy, I was inspired by the old WT covers with watchtower in foreground and mountain and waterfall in background. That has been the predominating subject matter of my artwork for over 50 years . . .

  Go figure; I can't shake it. ???

  Best.

  This Tired, Lonely Man

  this tired, lonely man has been snared, but i protest little .

  she holds me tenderly in her tightening but welcome thrall.

  i cave willingly -- oh, so willingly -- to her amatory attentions.

  Nancy and rip:

  Does this relate to the O. Henry and Hitchcock twists?
