Why
Why dream of the impossible
beauty becoming grey
in the light of darkness?
Why dream of fantasies
weaving a love that
was never meant to be?
Why dream of angelic clouds
coming quickly, disappearing
empty, futile, meaningless?
Why dream up make-believe
conjuring imagined fancies
extravagant reveries?
Life can be better than dreams
more amazing than any imagining
....although....it is possible....
dreams make for magical poetry
Here we have the realist reeling off one hard-headed question after another debunking human fantasies. And then, the dreamer answers the realist.
