Spiders Web

What is this thing we call dreaming?

Is it an alternate reality we live during the dark hours?

Are others living out their moment before being born

Using our blank minds to imprint their time upon?

Should we take note of those dream moments?

Alas, we do not. We let them fall by the wayside

A possible message lost.

Not all dreams relate to the day before.

As has been said, there are strange moments

mixed in that you seem to recognise, but cannot place.

Faces, voices that you feel you have met before

Familiar attributes you feel comfortable with

Is each life no more than a giant spiders web?

Each silken thread pulled by a puppet master

That loves the dark dreams best

the ones we call nightmares…

  1. Great poem, great questions Anita! I often wonder the same. There are definitely waking moments where I tie them to a dream but often can’t remember exactly what or when it was.💗

    1. Thank you, Jordy…

  2. Ooo, beautiful poem. So thought provoking. I often wonder about dreams – I have ones where things happen I can’t even describe, there are no words for them. So what are they all about? Makes you think…

    1. Thank you, Jessica…glad you enjoyed it…

      1. Very much!

  3. Beautiful poem . . . and appropriately creepy.

    1. Thank you, Priscilla…

  6. A lovely poem, Anita. I love the ending. I managed to share this one to FB. I have been having some difficulties with sharing.

    1. For some reason, I cannot share anything from WP to FB… No one seems to know why either…
      Glad you liked it, Robbie…

      1. Facebook disallowed it because they started their own blog platform. The announcement happened just as I started my blog. Ridiculous tat one cannot share or post onto their blog platform. Another FB failure in my book.

        1. Why have I not heard of this FB blogging platform?

          1. There was a note from WordPress when I first started. If you are on Facebook you can start a blog platform. I did but it is a pain to copy everything over since you can’t easily share from Twitter, WP or other platforms. Plus I don’t have a large base on Facebook. But check it out and let me know if you have any problems finding the prompts to start one. It is directly on your account page.

            1. This is where my brain thinks you speak a foreign tongue… do I even have an accounts page?
              I’m off to find out…

  7. Oh, I love the dreamy quality of the poem, and those last two lines gave me the shivers, Anita. I need hot tea and a blanket.

    1. Nothing wrong with hot tea and a blanket!
