You say I must dream of wings

or my life is forfeit 

Rather than offer hope, you trap!

Thus, I must dance to my own beat

You say I must dream of wings

Or know nothing of stars

I wish our lives will swap

so I live outside these bars-OracLe

——————————

These words proclaimed the Oracle frequently to us

In the hunt and search for game

Unable to fathom why gods place in our hands our fate

I set on to dream and make a name

Hold fast, hold fast, sail or bear loss

Fix the wings and set to fly

Nothing should stop; neither contempt nor hate

Let our visions take us high – Jennifer Dafwat

Reality should stop dreams from hurting me.

Reality cuts and I bleed, hurts as I bleed.   

Reality stood and watched as I bled.   

On my head whispering voices feed.     

                                                                                                

She said ‘be with me’

when he haunts and hurts my gentle soul.

Who would believe that you never cared                      

That my reality would consume my wish whole – Silvia.

In a journey of sleep dreams emerged.

Hoping to switch to reality.

Life wears shades without dreams.

Dreaming awake isn’t reality.   

Oh dreams!comes in wet clothes and dry.       

Leaving you with wishes.

Trying to meet reality 

What is reality without Dreams?-Bangwan

I know of a man, of a maiden name

Who slept with dreams and laid his claims

Winged the broken bird and soiled the barren field same

Before his snore his losses shames

This same man,  from a maiden clan

Went a little further because he can

To learn that sparrows and swallows lift their fingers

As dwam and rouse bear boons as bringers. Leon

Dreams of life and dreams of beauty

Beautiful ware to treasure and a ware to keep

The pair of wings for surfing beyond mortal limiting

But it’s beauty depends on perpetual sleep.

Dream as I may, Conny are the ways of reality

He has ruined dreams and seduced mortals into hating days;

Making Kings question the rationale for living.

Confront him, defeat him, live reality without haze. Tee2emm

Can I give a little wave

At the script God has for me

Then play a little

Whilst caress earthly visions?

Can I give a little wave

To bite men with ambition

Who arouses skittle

And distracts the dream motion?-Rachel Charles

This world i live in,

It is not enough to dream,

For the wings of my dream was broken a very long time ago,

Long before i learnt to crawl.

In my world dreams don’t win,

Holding unto it is foul,

the thought of nurturing one i let go,

For i have my mind shrouded with reality’s shawl.- Vera

She is the pregnant mother,

whose womb is a nest of the dead.

Her arms knows nothing about life

and her sweat is what her skin dread.

Why should we all bother,

if her sky holds no air?

if she becomes another wife? 

Life will still be unfair – Rudolph
