I woke up from a dream
It was no ordinary dream
I made decisions based on this dream
One day something happened just like in the dream
I’ve had lots of dreams
This one was more real than a dream
I considered this a spiritual dream
Because it wasn’t like any other dream
While cutting my lawn I heard a voice
I was given promises by this voice
I memorized the words of this voice
This was not an inside my head voice
This was an outside my head voice
This was a spiritual voice
I started asking questions of this spiritual voice
Answers came immediately from the voice
After a time the voice became an inside my head voice
After a while I gave up asking questions of the voice
This is when my obsession with the rational mind began
I never want my work with the rational mind to end
But it happened again
The spiritual mind began again
I leaned over a rail
To observe Roman ruins
I saw a man appear under an arch
He was as old as the arch
He said he made the arch
He said it was a two thousand year old arch
I’ll be more careful this time around
It was a spiritual vision of a man I saw
Brick Arch in Rome
I was leaning over a rail
Looking at ruins below
I spotted a brick arch
Sitting under it appeared a man
He looked up at me
You like the brick arch I made, he asked
Yes I do I said
This arch is two thousand years old he then said
There’s sweat dropping from your brow I said
I’ve made more than one arch today he said
You’re just like me
Except I don’t make arches I said
Yes, I’m just like you
Did you expect anything less he said
