Tell me my dream:
I'm the dreamer, you are my dream,
Who's the dreamer, whose dream is me?
Tell me my dream: what are you?
A sign, a symbol or a thing?
And what do you mean?
Are you a simile, a metaphor or metonymy?
And what's your value in communicative economy?
Are you a text or are you a pretext?
Just a context for feelings, emotions and thought processes?
Tell me my dream:
Are you descriptive? Are you prescriptive?
Or are you plainly predictive?
Are you relative to time?
Place or person?
Or are you absolute, eternal?
Ruthlessly TRANSCENDENTAL?
Are you intransitive or are you transitive?
Or are you a sort of ergative?
Are you masculine or are you feminine?
Are you neuter or are you neither?
Tell me my dream:
What is your gender?
Indeed, what's your language? What's the grammar?
Your phonetics, syntactics, semantics?
Are you art? Are you science?
Are you normative? Or only positivistic?
And what's your aesthetics?
Please spell out your ethics?
Are you organic? Are you mechanistic?
Tell me my dream:
You're sometimes beautiful
Other times ugly,
Why do you change thus?
Is it by choice or is it obligatory?
Why do wake up when I'm sleepful?
Why are you playful when I'm anxious?
What is your marital status?
Tell me my dream:
Why do you visit me only at night?
Why do you leave me at daybreak?
Are you shy or are you arrogant?
Whatever you be whoever you be,
Whatever your sex, colour or creed,
White or black, violet or blue,
Yellow, red or orange, green,
You are mine and mine alone,
Private, personal, uniquely one.
Abide with me till Kingdom comes. Amen.
The night is dark,
The morning far away.
Until morning, my dream, abide,
Abide with me. Amen.
