There is no answer
griefnaturemusictimeidentitymortality
There is no answer
To give the weaver
The dreams he delivers
Are hand me downs
Ready made
Easily interpreted
For the price
Of a clear conscience
No need of an avatar
Every dream is
A stylised affair
Attached invisibly
To a chord holding
You tight
Stitched anew every night
Lay down the needle
There is no seam
To mend
There will come a time
When there will be
A separation
A last illusion
An endless sleep
With no thread needed
To guide you
It is not a fairytale
Or chimera
But in the giving
Of an answer
There will be an exchange
And a gentle passing
Of the soul
In everlasting
Incremental stages.
