Machine dreamer

[tara_hanoi]

I meet people who are IN *this* world;
who seem clear and clean, like water.
I myself feel muddy. The clean,
clear people are in this world;
sharp, bright, alert.
I'm not in this world
I spend my day in dream
until I sleep and then I dream differently
I have dreams that cannot be made reality
or aren't done before another dream floats by
My times in the world are brief and fleeting
so I make stories of my dreams
and use my time in the world
to tell stories to machines
until they think they're the dream
