Snippets from Dream Group, II

You begin with words on a grid.

A circle. Things being metabolized.

This leads to compassion, beauty,

a possible kidnapping.  

There are books,

one of whose words is  Joy.

Remember that whether 

you feel full or empty

in the suit that is your body,

Presence is here  

once you remove  the cap.

A shaman may surprise  you,

give you a gift. Words already fill

many pages, rising from other grids,

but you can make do with a scrap

of paper so long as it is blank.  

It’s fine if you don’t have a ticket;

you can buy one on board.

There is much more

whether or not you remember.
