wore a chimpanzee mask (bright pink)
marched along
a mountain trail (bowling lawn mown grass)
from sides of the trail
from
shower-head loudspeakers heard
“something is missing! something is missing!”
at the summit, the Victorian group photo, subjects draped
over and around about each other – tangled blank
faces – flat and smooth
there were night fish, hiding their faces but not their lights
there was grasshoppers around a pool
into which dripped
lines of water
from guttering
from storms
a dirty child who tugged the air tried but
couldn’t reach her hand
said
“my dream was not magical enough”
“mijn droom was niet magisch genoeg”
he woke up but he was
wrong - he did dream a magic dream
