Dreams within dreams

I went to read a dream but
instead I found in the
pages of that book
dreams within dreams
within dreams and
for hours I ate to
satisfy my mouth
and paced to satisfy
my legs because
my heart wanted
and wanted and
wanted.

  1. Makes me think of Inception. :P

    It would be quite interesting if we could actually take refuge in a world of dreams. It would be quite the escape.

  2. Yes, it would be the ultimate escape! And then in the dream, I wonder what we would dream about...reality? And if we achieve the dream reality inside the dream, then what have we achieved? Is it not better, then, to not dream at all?

  3. But don't we sometimes dream of a reality, and thus make a dream reality? So, wouldn't dreaming be useful in that respect?

    Hmm, do you necessarily have to be dreaming of reality inside a dream though? I can see what you mean though: we'll never ever be truly satisfied with our lives. :P Is what what you are saying?

  4. Hahah yup that's what I'm saying. But I really like your positive way of looking at it: the dream becoming reality.
