Comment from johnwilson
This is a great piece about a dream. It is so powerful, filled with excellent metaphors for interpretation. It flows so well--nothing to change there. If I may be so bold as to offer a suggestion? " A weird dream had fire scorching our souls." Just because the beginning of a piece makes such a big difference.

Thank you john. I'll think about what you wrote.
Comment from cailinraine8
I have the weirdest dreams, some people seem to dream things that would happen in every day life... so "normal" and I always think I must be very strange. But I think if you really dissect this dream, you can glean what is meant for you to understand. It reminds me of Revelations, where in the end times there is disaster and a reckoning. Some kind of danger must be sitting at the back of your awareness. It could be a sign for caution in some area of your life.

Comment from karenina
A wise therapist would ask you with all due gravity...."What do YOU think it meant?"----but alas, I am no therapist....so there ya go...it is a wild mish mash of anxiety and stress coalescing around normal things that are displaced in dreams to stir the weary and frightened soul. That's what it feels like to this reader. That being said....true dream or not....you express yourself in a stark and very sharp way and make me sit up and take notice. Karenina

Comment from ServantOfGod
Somehow this dreams seems to be telling me the fact that we are our own enemies. I guess that's probably a way to interpret this. Thank you for sharing this poem, and hope you'll have sweeter dreams. :)

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
Dreams are often nonsensical with an element of truth or something in your daily routine that stars in your dream, to understand them would be great. Your poem is a confusion of different thoughts that bring unrest and distruption. Love Dolly x

Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This speaks a dream within a dream; it is somewhat weird, atmosphere is well depicted like eating from the fire; no milk from the cow, people have power to protest, enemy lives within; well written, well done. B A CHANGE INSPIRER-WRITER -- DR ALCREATOR

Comment from royowen
I must admit I have some dreams that I remember, but the vast majority just vanish into the ether from whence they came. But I've never had repetitive dream. Joseph in the Old Testament was a dream reader who became second to Pharaoh because of his gift. Daniel also preditcted historical events to this time, deadly acurated, Nostradamus is a schoolboy in comparison. Well done, beautifully written my friend in free verse. Blessings, Roy

Thank you Roy. Some dreams are visions of what could be and some are warnings. I've had warnings.
