      Poem: Dreams

      Yeah, it's poor, but it's plucked straight from the head so what do you expect?

      Dreams

      It is said the greatest of us
      command or dreams
      shape our goals
      walk our own tread.

      Then there are those
      who sail on them
      clinging, each wave
      a sea of silver surfaces.

      What of us, then,
      who drown in them?

      What of us, then,
      who seek beyond the skin?

      It can only be uncertain.

      To balance out the shiteness of the last poem, I thought I'd post this, which I entered for a contest some time ago:

      The Man and the Raven

      The man watched the raven
      with an eye as keen as his.
      It stood majestically in the square,
      robed in it's purple-black cloak.

      It's beak a sunrise crown
      scaled with ice,
      It shuddered slightly,
      the cold slipping away like
      a satin veil.

      He watched this king with envy,
      his own fingers had died
      adopting frost.
      Every night they savoured the last
      dying embers of a flickering midnight sun.

      The raven lowered his head to the ground,
      picking scraps from the stone.
      The man had long wished he could do the same,
      But he was a prisoner of morals
      that were no longer his.

      The raven caught the vagrant
      with a jewelled eye.
      The man wished it a way
      to escape the hunger that
      had caught him with
      equal suprise.

      And then the two scavengers left,
      one with wings stirring the bitter winter air,
      the other with feet like fists,
      burning snow with stale anger.
