Pickled Smiles and Other Poems

We've Dreams

Fire tempers
Cold is not
Strength

Warmth Is All
Knowing
The heart is just part
of the mind
Not separate
Not opposed

And we've dreams
To make
Real

Up ahead
we have shed
the animal

no longer food, shelter, land, hate, greed, sorrow

no longer trapped, resource mired
where they came from
where they should go

no longer wondering, frozen in fear
where we came from
where we should go

Up ahead
world left behind
out in the stars
our place

We will ourselves be
gods
finally
wonderfully
at peace

We've dreams
