i caught a nap

Knackered and weary,
I closed my eyes;
The cool murmur of a breeze,
Hovered over me.
Picking me up like a leaf,
Caught in the wind,
Over planets and galaxies,
Into another world, it set me.

Supple, gentle snores,
Echoed around me,
Tranquillity filled my nostrils, and
Light-headedness enveloped me.
Into space I floated,
A thousand dreams, I dreamed,
And freshness breathed on me.
It was a nap I caught.

an escape destination

In between life’s harsh experiences,
An escape destination, designed
To ease our afflictions and woes–
Imagines of the ideals birthed there.

This destination, not a faraway, is
Encased in a cavity, inside our heads,
Therein the brain lies, holding minds–
Enabling thoughts and imaginations.

Such thoughts – called different names,
Fantasizes, dreams, ideas, obsessions,
Powerful enough to effect orgasms–
Is better than a wealth of knowledge.

They bring smiles into our hearts,
A source of inspiration, from whence
Hope dwells for a perfected world–
Imaged and internalised for tomorrow.

A destination where adjectives and verbs,
Are a couple unified in pursuit of feats,
Visualised without faults and failures–
That manifests the dominion of man.

Tis strange, such beautiful destinations,
Welled in people, yet doldrums reigns,
As ruthless as reality, callously insensitive–
To bruises and wounds, hurts and pain.

My imagines, an escape destination;
Creates and recreates, models of scenarios,
Of ideas, fantasies, aspirations and hope–
Preciously pricey, beyond wealth’s worth.
