The Magic Inside The Castle (Dream Poem)
I know where there are horizontal Ferris wheels that rotate around the individual gondolas like carousels
while three wizards in parallel overcast amiable spells that chime in the playing of saxophone and bells
relax and inhale, there are floating stacks of blue cotton candy you can smell
you can dream while being awake here as well painted with an orange pastel, in the middle of the court yard, there’s a boat on a lake with a sail…dancing remote on the waves like a gazelle

Nice sequence!
I like how this is deceptively relaxing. And this “painted with an orange pastel, in the middle of the court yard, there’s a boat on a lake with a sail…dancing remote on the waves like a gazelle”
Is a painting itself.
I think my favorite is relax and inhale — perfectly placed in the middle of this fine poem.
I like that you say: “you can dream while being awake here as well” It makes me think of lucid dreaming….that contact with dreams you only get when you know that you are dreaming while you are dreaming….And this poem is so fluid—it is hard to know which world it is from—it feels like both with serious dreaming involved!!! I really enjoyed reading this ! thanks!
