Dream seeking the Soul

Spare Change in the Boot of a Dream seeking the Soul
I swam across a pool of buffalo
reaching out to a coastal dream...
the clouds were very European
but the weather smelled adieu,
17 palms held out for directions,
feed the hunger before it eats you...
Night darkens in satanic hues
while trains steal cattle on the run,
desperadoes on horses chasing the steam,
I could be a big star on westerns
but it's wrapped in oiled cloth
put on shelves for eyes yet born.
A horn across the reflections
wet with her liquid fires...
summon schools of fishy angels
attracted to the nectar's
swimming before cast shadows
dressed in imported confetti
from mainland of Orient..
High on a cliff looking south.
searching for a swim,
finding a muff-dive
diving in me trying
to survive
stay alive...
death
is
no
change
