WRITE 28 DAYS: DREAM POEMS – Day 7

Part of my Feb 2024 Dream Poems project. Ghost CrabIn the midst of the deepest nightI almost awaken and form my dream's storyas it flees, a strobing, flickering shadow just out of sight, flashing light then dark, and I’m teasing the photons, poking the dim absence, hunting again for the body’s dream pose, the shapethat can call it back to me.When I know there’s more,unseen but felt like the…

WRITE 28 DAYS: DREAM POEMS - Day 5

Part of my Feb 2024 Dream Poems project. At A Loss For Words Some encounters are dreams, set in a real world that’s been rendered to appear more magically incoherent than usual, the elements available, proscribed, known, but swirling together without taking shape, like in the liquor store when John told me that come spring he would want to dominate a conversation with me about his garden, and I…

WRITE 28 DAYS: DREAM POEMS - DAY 4

Part of my Feb 2024 Dream Poems project. Seeing the Hawk At the corner of my human eye is a hawk, a goshawk, someone sent me photos of one today from Colorado, and here it is until I move my focus to it and now it’s a small gooseneck lamp perched on a desk but finding this and knowing this doesn’t stop me from seeing a hawk again and again when I look slightly elsewhere and every time, thrilled,…

I witness the breathing image, stripped to silhouette, a filtered projection of…

WRITE 28 DAYS: DREAM POEMS – DAY 2

Part of my Feb 2024 Dream Poems project. Arriving & Leaving Walking loosely in the woods, alongside ponds and oceans, coves that are calm, coves that are choppy, I’m remembering swimming across this choppy cove and almost not making it, but that’s not now. Now I’m with a blonde woman and a 10-year-old boy who’s not mine and not hers, the three of us finding ourselves up here in Maine, on our…

Write 28 Days: Dream Poems - Landing Page

For “Write 28 Days” this February I’m planning to write a poem (more of a poem first draft. something written in less than a half-hour) each day that’s either based on a dream or that accesses or derives from my waking dreamy state. There may be inspiring images involved, there may not. I don’t think I can say much more about it, because I don’t know much more about it. We’ll see what…
