Week 2: Nowhere

1/12/2014

0 Comments

 
I’ve got my head in the clouds
as the fog folds around me
like the misty half-hearted alertness
of the trance I’m walking through.
Directions are void in this fog,
shrouded by the mixed metaphors
of somebody else’s dreams.

Often in these reveries, I stop
walking to smell the roses of a place
called nowhere.
It’s in nowhere that I spend
my dreaming hours, far from
the actuality of a set place,
where time is not measured in the hard concrete
of a second but in the haze of an
indefinite moment.
Nowhere is so far from reality.

In my dreams, in these clouds I’m folded in,
I’m falling asleep and it feels
wonderful.
To be nowhere--
what a beautiful place that is.

    The 52 project is simple: for an entire year, I'll write one poem a week. I will continue and complete this project through 2014.
