In the dream world, she would have a typewriter that would send inspiration flying through her fingertips, not like the clunky whirring of a computer where the letter 'e' sticks longer than it should, turning 'the' into 'thee' and sending her brow plummeting to the middle of her face with discern. She would never have to think about the number of syllables per line, or how overly extravagantly flowery her metaphors were. Sometimes she would write with a sharpened lead pencil on a wooden desk that had been scrubbed back and painted.
In the dream world, there is money for fresh flowers, she never has to run for the bus, her room is filled with books that have been chosen with care for her by someone else, she retains information like a thirsty sponge, her conjugations are perfect and her black clothes never fade out to grey.

ReplyDeleteBehind heavy eyes she reached her dreamed world. Oh dear: plane tickets lined up like coke rails, words and sentences wrapped up in divine French perfumes, fresh lowers twice a day, limo waiting for her in front of the house, only intriguing and inspiring books on the table next to her bed every evening, AND eye-killing alive colors in her clothes…
She now dreams of the in-dream dreamed world and wants a carpet made of stars, feel the taste of the night flavor, touch the soul of her friends, kiss Hyperion, make love to the sun AND write the poem defying Mahabharata.
But behind the heavy eyes in the in-dreams dreamed world she reached the in-dreams dreamed world and had the stars’ carpet, tasted the night, touched the souls of all of her friends, kissed Hyperion and made love to the sun (not at the same time) and wrote a poem making blush Mahabharata’s authors.
She now again dreams of another dreamed world in the in-dreams dreamed world and needs eternal life. Just that.
