After the dream within the dream
Dreamt by the dreamer one who’s unknown
I know time goes in our eyes and our eyes
Only
And it stops and starts again
Over and over again
And I know, especially, Violet will keep the leads
Violet will know the titles
The stories we made of our lives
To be part of the history of tomorrow’s future
Just because we feel that need of importance
The cat doesn’t
And the cat lives
Happier

After the root that escaped the ground
Violet knew the secret of the gods and why they are gods
That a fall in twoness cannot be risen to the sky
That, in the end, love is but the ability to recognise
Your self — day or night — in the other
That there is a Sun conducting nine strings (a broken one)
And lonely strings lost among three suns

That before the planetary ellipticals
Before the universal measure

All is, in the first senses

That after the planetary ellipticals
After the universal measure

Do-overs, every thing is
