the dreaming world

by Peter Hsu

winter turns and curls
dead slumber of the world

whispering clouds fray downward
to meet the earth as imperfect rain

the world dreams of festering life
and i, awake, dream of nothing

Author's Note: In the midst of winter, in the midst of night.

nice, evocative. (as far as I'm concerned, spring can't come soon enough.)
