Extent of a Dream
By: Adam M.  Snow

Again, I cannot live
But to know it's not eternal;
Caring the world on my shoulder,
Does harm to my infernal
Extent of a dream.
Forevermore in a realm,
Goes on with the stream,
Howling with the wolves
In a sinister choir.
Just as the nightly solves,
Killing my infernal extent of a dream.
Like the shatteredness of my heart;
Nevermore showing a gleam,
More-the-less myself.

Dreams can lead us to good and bad places. I like the description in this poem.
"Howling with the wolves
In a sinister choir.
Just as the nightly solves, "
I like the ending. left some mystery and question. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

I don't think you get the reviews you deserve. You are an awesome poet, your rhythm and your choice or words seems very well planned and deep.
I also like how you aren't afraid to cinch the rhymes and spout a phrase or idea that mismatches the last stanza, or..line. what have you. For example- you did it 3 times in this piece. (Added a word that mismatched) in the beginning "Live"; the middle, "choir"; and the end, "myself"
Bold moves in a wonderfully streaming poem. And it's perfected, I'm sure. Good job.

A devastating statement of resignation, yet it's written so eloquently that it almost works doubly as a statement of motivation when one is in such a despondent place...great piece.

Dreams are odd things indeed but I love dreams. This is poem is just as mysterious as some dreams
