Becoming The Dream Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Becoming The Dream



Today
I unlocked
a new window

One
I had never
opened before

Air
rushing in
calling me back

Voices
familiar
yet foreign to name

And
as I passed through
that new window

Leaving
behind
what used to be me

Losing
my shadow
to futures long past

Reaching
for something
—becoming the dream

(Dreamsleep: January,2023)
