Into the dream
the
living dream
the
lucid dream
the
most common dream
in which
you are
falling
you pass
through
traversing state
through state
obliterating boundaries. Your mother
would be proud of you
the way you cannot be
kept in a box
much like how you
are trapped in your own body
She might say, There is
an essence of spirit about
my child, unable to be
held down, in a world
where
it is so important
to the world
for people to be held
down, oppressed, and silenced
She would
point at you effortlessly balancing
tightropes between
liminal
and boundless spaces
illuminated from beneath and above
and she would say,
My child?
