we've met

by Charlie Morgan

we all meet in our dreams,
move along the seabed of our history
bringing with us all our past.
daily it comes to make our shell,
a lens to anothersÂ’ way of seeing us.

and the louder dreamer
canÂ’t be awakened without injury.

we live our leagacy
dressed as an albatross
and just as heavy with disdain.

"the seabed of our history" is such a great line! And "bringing with us all our past" gives me the image of a wake stretching out behind a boat.

Awesome poem, this is exactly how it goes. Which explains why I would rather be a hermit crab.
