Dream work

i walked and saw the chrysanthemums on fire 
one by itself might look like a rather silly flower 
and i wondered how it could look like any other 
yet perfect when clustered together in a mire 
 
i looked around me and the world was burning 
my hands, head and feet drew a pentagram circle 
and in the center of my chest opened up a portal 
although it went unseen since a lot was unfolding 
 
i started to wonder if there was something wrong 
since i saw people walking in scenes from the future 
while it seemed to me like the whole show was over 
i listened to the ageless continuity locked up in song

mortal for a moment
