Monday Poem: Midsummer Dreaming

Midsummer Dreaming

A warm midsummer night can offer dreams,
a possibility of such bright notions
all formed from airy nothings to become
a whole new cast of folk that go beyond

the merely human and its limitations
are only at the furthest reaching out
of our desires where humans change and twist
become strange  animals that turn and prowl

and the beyond the human acquires shapes
that shadow all the shapes of human forms
and hot desires to take us on dark dances
through the confusing woods at night until

all is revealed as back in order now
by the cool early dawn’s revealing light.
