Remove my Skull

  That a Brain may Breathe

And Stretch into the Sky

  The Dream last night

    Wants to Return—

  It does not want to Die—

                ~

Too long it's Flown 

  Through Empty Air

Seeking Manifestation

  And I at last—

    Reality-Bound

  Am seeking Transformation—

                ~

Yes crush my Bones!

  That I may Melt

Into the Cosmic Sea!—

  This Heavy Form—

    Its Limbs Archaic!—

  With a Heart that wants to Be

                ~

On Time with Schumann—

  And coequally 

Paripatetic with the Dream—

  Oh Ancient Light!—

    Carry Us Away!

  To the Hindermost Galaxies!

                ~

Where all my Thoughts

  Can Wine and Dine

Without Exigencies!

  Where All is Sound—

    For This I reach

  Over Current Societies—

                ~

Who was that then?

  Where are they Now?—

What other World had I seen?

  And Why do I

    Remember them?—

  Do they remember Me?—

                ~

What was that Place

  So stark and vivid—

No Memory did produce?

  I'll await Tonight

    To Travel again—

  My Agenda, I will Induce.

                ~

...But wait!—

Is it not I

  Who left unwillingly—

Called forth by This Reality?

  Or was I uninvited,

    But allowed to Visit?—

  Then why are you Haunting me?!—

                ~

How would I acquire

  An Eternal Pass?—

Yes this, I'd like to Own—

  No Cost too great

    Could ever there be—

  My Debt has built your Throne.

                ~

And with these Words—

  A Spark of Hope—

I Build myself a Fire

  Where I am Fulcrum

    To the Cold,

  Over the Decisive Pyre.
