Literature Text

i have never had dreams the way that you do
so vivid and morning-hour lasting
i am tired of pressing my palms to the windows
staring at the green glitter skin of the earth
i want these things that you can't give to me
i can only do these things inside my own my mind
because the world won't accept them as they are
or cannot accept them because the people see it in themselves
but, unlike you my unlucky irish man i have hope
i'll carry it in my pocket, smoothen over like a river stone
it's a game my friend jimmy and i play, called five minute poem. you write and edit a poem in five minutes. i get my best work out of such games. you should try it.
