The World Is A Dreamland Poem by Tony Adah

The world is such
A vast dreamland
Sleeping and dreaming
Waking and living with the dream
The world knows no rest
A man that sees his dream
And remains in a slumber
Knows no gain of sleeping and dreaming

We gleefully say our dreams
With the glibness that makes them
Mature only in our mouths
Or in other people's ears.
A stillbirth they become
And we burry them without tombs.

The gloaming is the time
To name your dream
And the dawn is the time
To rise up to it.
