THE SEARCH FOR A TRUE PINK (photomorph) & SUBMERSIBLE (dream prose poem) by Roswila

SUBMERSIBLE

the obviously highly privileged
young blonde white woman,
holds up a military submersible;
it’s been painted a pale, pearlescent
pink and has bows and gewgaws
dangling from it; she proudly
declares to the festival gathering:
“See what can be done! Here’s
a re-purposed submarine!”
applause rises from the crowd
on which murmurs of praise surf
brightly like ocean foam; “Now,”
the dreamer thinks sardonically,
“can she or anyone else find a way
to re-purpose the minds of those
humans who want only
to go to war?”

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,
