Where no tyranny is tolerable

The Amazon

1:
You find me
In my dreams,
In a place of weightless floating
Where I somehow knew
That you would be.
To sooth my pain,
You come to me,
You tall,
You big,
You lush and gentle Amazon,
Hauntingly, impossibly beautiful;
And I am nude.

2:
You tell me that you know me,
Know my passion, longing and desire.
You say that you had met me years ago.
You keep insisting that you know me,
That you Know me.
You keep insisting
It is I who do not notice
Or can not remember.
And you keep saying
That one day I finally will.

3:
You come to me.
With strong and gentle arms, and even legs,
You TAKE me,
and you are nude,
and no one ever came to me like that!
You thrust a scrap of paper
in my hand, it is in Braille,
leave a lush and gentle kiss
upon my lips,
then, vanishing,
you wake me me,
And the note you wanted me to read is gone,
And my eyes
Are filled with tears.

That's quite a luscious dream, Jaime.
Be careful about those Amazon.com women though, they want to sell you some more audio books. LOL

Sometimes we readers
have to step back
to see the treasures...
