Waking Dream (shadow sonnet)

by Larry Chamberlin   May 17, 2018


Back in dream time we kept each other’s back
love permeated all that we gave love
track of game came easily and on track
above all we remembered those above
then came fire and wheel and ever since then
all woke to nightmares encompassing all
when asleep it seemed I could always win
y’all must know we’re sinking - come man the yawl.
Hope there must be: a way to save our hope
even if we must bring all things even
cope with evil and help others to cope
leavin’ no one on refugee ships leavin’
Dream time memories can inspire a dream
team players work together for the team.
