lucid dreaming [poem]

smiles in rearview mirror
fedora over beach hair
bouncing down urban road in
red pickup truck
nose ring yeah i'm cool
folk tunes stampin stereo
red light guy in next car 
looked over i swear be cool
windows rolled right down
but that was just a dream

yoga star om expert 
sweating thru anti-corporate
tank and coloured crops
smiling thru pain and 
posing each moment for Yoga Journal
hair tossed carelessly
elegant earthy top knot
waterproof mascara
breath perfection alignment perfection
but just another dream

cute blonde office girl
tucked neatly behind desk 
smiling hiding
long finger nails tick tak typing
little wink for the silver-haired 
executives patriarchs
dressed up just enough 
but not too much
so sweet so quiet so dumb
but yeah it's just a dream

book and bag on arm
a poet on the beach
wind blowing thru pages
don't look distracted girl
fedora makes a second act
not worried where sand sneaks in
looking out to vast blue ocean
believing she understands
beauty and love HAH
what's left after the dream?
