I found this poem:

I unpacked my storage locker in Melbourne and found some old notebooks. This fell out when I was sorting them.

If you can’t read my terrible writing it says

DREAM LIGHT (LUCE)


If there are other words we walk

into with dreams

They might have other logic

in the way their atoms move

Physics might be as it is in dreams

where you can walk across events,

over hours & arrive.

Be as here as

you ever were.

Curve like light around - that moment

when -


and every piece of time would be laid out

in all directions, all - all time at once like a

sheet so

we moved over it

instead of it through us.

It wouldn’t matter that there is a place

beyond which you - are not.


In the physics of a dream

things are only where you remember

them being.

We could talk & you might be alive

or in an orb or a swan

giving me a quest

or breakfast.

Eating breakfast at the table as you used

to as I came downstairs half dressed

and half asleep

And you’d make fun of me

with bits of verse

or ask me questions.

Your poem is exquisite! Thank you for sharing! It reminds me of some of the things I felt after my mom passed away. I came home from her funeral and everything in their house was so familiar, but she was not present. She existed only in memories. And memories were like photographs in an album; a memory from 30 years ago could lay right beside a memory from 30 days ago. Time dims and alters our memories, but, strangely doesn't contain them.
