Lucid Dreams

Doug Volgenau

Free verse
Lucid dreaming; endlessly scheming...
Mind trips infinitely undefined...
multilayered, control faceted;
participants cloaked...straight-jacketed.
Meaning, too often crust-pretentious,
yet validity best unquestioned...
Forewarned lists forearmed tested; kill-shot
never routed...unconventional...
Self-designed, trussed unsurmountable.
