The Danger of Dreams

Photograph of two shelves of my bookcase, each packed messily with fat books. Two books on the bottom are taller than there rest, and white. Their titles read WRITING: THE GRIM & THE ACT.

I woke this morning from a vivid dream. 

I was sitting at my desk and I glanced at the bottom bookshelf.

I saw two copies of a large white paperback.

These two books weren’t there yesterday. Two duplicates.

The title of the books was easy to read, even from this distance. It was: 

WRITING: THE GRIM & THE ACT

I took this as a warning and made this short.

The Clog of the Blog.
The Anxious Analogue.
The Whim & the Pact.
The Dream & the Fact

(of the paperbacked).

One thought on “The Danger of Dreams”

  1. The excitement of news
    The folly of the muse

    Let’s kill the line
    And pulverise the rhyme

    I could go on and on
    But my work here is done.
