THIS FAR & NO FURTHER (photo) & "my handicapped friend ..." (dreamku) by Roswila

my handicapped friend
blocks traffic to bust chops
wicked sense of humor


[re-post of dreamku posted on 8/20/09. Not recalling my dreams very well again. I do have a sense, though, of lots of repetition. Something I’ve noted increasingly in dreams of recent years. I.e., the same scenario repeats several times in a row in the night's dreams. It feels a lot like waking life (BWL [big wry laugh]): the definition of insanity is doing the same thing, over and over, expecting different results. In any case, I went through a lot of my old dreamku (haiku-like dream form I developed) just now and finally settled on this one for both its humor and its rebellion. Sort of thumbing my nose at the world that I’ve been so p.o.’d at for a long time. Photo “This Far & No Further” (Screenshots 5-26-19[5]) by Roswila]

PLEASE NOTE: in most browsers you can click on the above image for a larger version. Also, the photo accompanying a post is not necessarily meant to illustrate it, but to reflect some small, even slant aspect of the verse, similar to Japanese haiga (illustrated haiku).

There are many other sorts of posts on this blog. I indicate which are about or influenced by dreams. Some non dream focused posts are book reviews, "regular" poems (some by other writers), scifaiku, writing exercises, Tarot haiku, photos, haiga, and so on. However, most of those are in much older posts. There's a listing by month going back to early 2006, at the end of the sidebar.

until next time, keep dreaming,
