If I Were Dreaming

If I were dreaming,

would the cold and snow still bite my face

in the winter

when I went skiing?

 

If I were dreaming,

would the heat of June-July-August-now-October-too(?)

still drench my body in sweat

and make me tired?

 

If I were dreaming,

would I know how much

I did not know?

 

If I were dreaming,

I think my subconscious wouldn't know

that perfect isn't perfect

and my dream-me would do things right.

 

I hope I'm not dreaming

(but what difference does it make?)

    For their passion

    they whisper

    like kindergarteners

    who can't stand straight in lines

    but they can jump straight
