Dreamlands Sway

Dreamlands Sway

A Poem by Siddartha Beth Pierce

Dreamlands sway

has come to play

a little with my mind

as you it seems

I find

there lurking

suavely so

crying for in utero

yet it is not your mother's womb

that you crave

but mine

and in my dreamlands sway

I can not push you away

but welcome you with loving arms

tis your midnight charms

that were always

the ones that I could not push past

yet it did not last

and I awake once again

by myself

but warmed

from your nighttime splendor

when upon my hearth's door

you welcomed me to you

once more.

Craving the womb a most unusual metaphor, it's okay for warm but slippery for sex. I get the sense that the dream spirit is a child which makes this very mysterious as a metaphor. Deeply romantic, androgynous again and like a teaser in that we are only warmed. Nice subtle stuff, excellent and smoooth. Suaveness to a mother's womb, yet not mother....hmmmmmm, man or woman?

Such a beautiful dance of dreams, written almost lyrically lulling me into another world. I love the tune and tone of every line! Marvelous!!!
