DAILY DREAMKU

CALENDAR READING*

prairie calendar
black and white horses in front
of a grand oak tree

auspicious
for difficult meetings
any month's sixth day

*Those familiar with the Tarot might see The Chariot (VII) in the first dreamku of this pair, and The Lovers (VI) in the second.

By the way, if you comment about a specific dreamku or series, please copy that dreamku or title into your comment or email, as this post changes daily and I sometimes can't tell which one is being referred to. Thanks! All of my DAILY DREAMKU posted in a month, appear after the end of that month in one post on this blog.

[See other sorts of recent posts below. Not all works posted here are dream-based. I indicate which are about or influenced by dreams.]

NOTE AS OF MARCH 13, 2008: I have finally started the promised yahoo group for dreamku. Here's the link to the very brief introduction, where you can join us as we explore dreams and this small but powerful new poetry form: DREAMJIN: A Group for Dreamku, Haiku-Like Dream Poems.

Links to a my three-part post "A DREAMKU PRIMER: Writing Haiku-Like Poems About Your Night Dreams": PART ONE: Introduction & Writing Dreamku as DreamWork; PART TWO: Elements of the Haiku Form Used in Dreamku; and PART THREE: How to Write Dreamku (the second and third parts have some overlap). If you try your hand at or have already written dreamku, please feel free to post some in a comment or email them to me (under "View My Complete Profile" in the sidebar) or join DREAMJIN (see above).

N.B. I offer all of my work on this blog -- poetry, prose or art -- simply as explorations. Also, in working with this blog I have realized I am essentially telling the story of my life. In a jig-saw puzzle form, piece by piece. I hope you get something from whatever pieces of the picture you view.

P.S. If you see any typos anywhere on this site, I'd love it if you'd email me or leave a comment telling me what and where. I recently found some typos in older posts (despite all the proofing I do) and it was a bit like having been out in public grinning and then finding I had spinach in my teeth!
