GiNormous secret longings
festoons like a high diving flame
where dark dominion
becomes a now distant companion

I knew nothing about what held me then
but took another look

last night I dreamed Hemingway
a close read with edifying force
combing confidential tears
across the universe
powerfully engaging sea gardens
grinning luck at dawn
only this time, with broad shoulders
glimmering a vast embrace

giving an open eye account
while dreaming, I knew some how
my house was growing
past dividing lines
into language at best
its not easy
Yet
it is the human face of time
pointing through me with rich melody
on a spectacular clear night

I caught sight
of a woman murmuring
words, like a kitten smiling,
into the ears
of expression
with last names of white
firmament
old fashioned dial up earth
sitting behind a bar
in some brightly lite
cyprus olive grove
starting to download
red wine poems
sounding off like
Buddha positions
ohmmmmm

I remember thinking
“I’d really like to have a double”
pregnant brilliant green eyes
karmic minds whispering of blue waters

marvelously strange this vast sea
handing me an envelope
with a special card
which read
“Unstoppable business, this lagoon”
I felt the "handshake of afterlife"
& the world
behind my soul

“GiNormous”

As in:
Macro?
Theoretical and empirical?
Homothetic?
Probabilistic?
Cosmic blackbody microwave radiation?
Hertzsprung-Russell diagram?
Radio recombination line emission?
Becklin-Neugebauer object?

Enjoyed your dreaming.  “no clothes”
