Dreams

Slide, fall
into the realm
the inky stillness
after restless days

Wake, fitfully
Scraps of memory
or Technicolor show

Prescience sometimes
Of future conversations,
Experience yet to come

Not déjà vu exactly,
But waking foreknowledge
of meaningless drivel

Allegory, metaphor
Passion, smells
a lost smile

or disjointed drama
Different for each
Shards or chapter and verse
