dream harder in dream

handbound at nightfall
hazel at the headwater we
cast out drink up and dream

i can only offer a dream harder
for pan's skies and evermore
a kiss in whispered secrets

dream harder in dream

    “dream harder”—love this, to control our dreams with adjectives, harder or softer…interesting.

      Thanks. I guess I’m trying to make the act of dreaming less passive and more active, if that makes sense.

        Absolutely! When I was younger, I felt like I had more control over my dreams. Lately, I’ve been too stressed and while they are as vivid as ever, I don’t seem to be as much of an active participant (if that makes sense.) I’d like to get back to the time when I could relax into my dreams more.

          It makes complete sense to me. I’m actually going through a phase where my dream are happening to me rather than being a part of me. More like watching a movie than being an actor in a play and I’m used to the latter.
