A Poem - Fox (2024)

I take the night's air softly seeking,

Dreams held in my dreamer’s keeping.

Dreams of realms beyond this plane,

Dreams I dreamt of once again.

I bridge the gap between two worlds;

My liminality unfurls

The scrolls upon which poets writ

Tales on cunning, tales of wit.

I take the night's air all a-roaming

O’er tangled woodlands all a-gloaming,

I seek the scent of the brown hare,

I seek the spoor held in the air.

I bridge the gap twixt There and Here,

Divest yourself of mortal fears,

I'll lead you by my vixen's wiles

Unto the dreams the earth reviles.

I take the night's air softly seeking,

Dreams held in my dreamer’s keeping.

Dreams of realms beyond this plane,

Dreams I dreamt of once again.
