Swept away dreams... 18th July 2024

Swept away dreams

Is it a scream in the wilderness
Or the wail of the beleaguered?
He carried the bamboo basket on his head
For too long, filled with dreams
Until the weight became too much
And everything fell
He released his dreams into the stream
Pphht!
But couldn't cross with that weight
The current was too fast
After crossing, he checked his basket, empty
His dreams floated away, lost in the distance
