...A Poem by Ookpikhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oN2Xs-MvxLw&ab_channel=ZackHemsey
.
. . There is a dream, . One dream, . That always comes back. . . It is set in a city of mist, . Or deep, in the dark of a forest - . Lined at the root-floor . With hundreds . Of carefully crafted statuettes. . . And I am leaping; . And leaping; . . Bounding over miles, . And at such heights - . Over the tree-line . Or beyond the mist, . . Before falling back . And doing it again. . . Such heights, . Like a bird without its feathers - . Landing gently, . . Softly, . Safely, . . Before tracking another arc . And taking the horizon . With calculated leisure, . And embarking the interval . With an equanimous pleasure. . . It is a dream that appears, in time, . Only to remind me that deep in my heart, . . Somewhere hidden, . Somewhere unspoken, . . Is an inescapable desire to cross distance . And to do so in a manner worthy of the accomplishment. . . .
