If life was a dream

If life is a dream

then were is reality 

if life is a dream 

then what were our dreams

Are those sleepy slumbers

the life we all lead

when we shiver and twitch

in coma like state

If life is dream

then were is reality 

if life is a dream 

then what were our dreams

Those slumbering visions

of monsters and ghouls

a demented but truthful reality?

with infinite retry s

If life is a dream

then we've lied to reality

if life is a dream

were playing out the wrong story

Strangely, this makes me think that dreams are parables of our reality. That dreams are influenced by how we perceive reality, interpreted by our feelings - therefore they make little sense and have no structure. But perhaps they do have meaning.
Perhaps dreams and reality are just flip-sides of a coin...
Interesting, thoughtful piece.

Nice piece of work.

Good poem with a lot of tension between the two poles of reality and dream.
