The Ancient Star Kingdom, Internalized
I
dream of exploring pristine castles
beyond Gaian atmosphere
from the safety of my
silver fifth avenue
under duress
of the clan’s
maw.
I
awaken in existential rumination
as Daoism writhes and whisks
me from the safety of my
black silken sheets—
Did I taste reality
or early onset
dementia?

Good strong form, makes you think.
I like the exploration of two worlds so near and yet never touching. Perhaps none can say which is the more real. Great writing, Stefan!
