Dream, You are too much For this frail strength. How can I make you Less a dream? Once I thought that dreams Were fragile as the velvet dust Upon the wings of moths. But you are strong; You lash unmercifully! Perhaps I am too small For this great dream; And, Failing to bring it into Conscious being -- Will ever bear its scar. This dream, unrealized, Unsung, Will take its vengeance Crying for expression. Dream, How can I make you Less a dream? Be reality, Or vanish into Nebulous nothingness. You are too much For this frail strength. |
