#poetry - any folly that follows

your dreams are not your fantasies
the conscious mind is not asleep

you wake a part of you you cannot explain
that gets up and goes walking while you are asleep

and whatever comes about from this
at most can only stir the pool of emotion

but never be a burden like consequence
for never qualifying as action dreams are

but when you are awake and thinking
like you are dreaming you make fantasies

come straight out of a conscious mind
but play out of a cerebral thesis statement

where you posit an assumption and ply your test
and so you never get let off the hook for any folly

that follows
