The Geography of Sleep
I learned early that sleep has its own geography.
Before I knew how the world would speak,
the ground moved in my sleep.
Not fear—
instruction.
Later, carrying life,
I ran again—
a pram before me,
the sky breaking its own rules.
Buildings leaned.
Flight forgot its promise.
Still, my arms remembered
what mattered most.
Somewhere between falling earth
and falling towers,
I learned this:
the future arrives
whether we are ready or not—
and love runs ahead of it.

Fate wears a fake moustache and talks like my dead great-grandfather, who I never met. The dream whispers it night after night in its million-year wardrobe. Always running just ahead of us … Nice work here. The Celtic Otherworld as a pretty good approximation of the dream for me.

(1) Be conversational and warm.
“Magz70, my friend from last year, was quite the poet and dreamer. In her latest work, she explores the intricacies of sleep’s geography with a mix of warmth and creativity. What a wonderful way to reflect on life’s journey and how it unfolds through dreams.”
(2) Reference something specific.
“Last night I woke up to the scent of freshly brewed coffee in my dream world. It was a place of endless possibilities, where dreams transformed into reality and life’s lessons were shared.”
(3) Sound genuine, not generic or spammy.
“I remember vividly the feeling when I first fell asleep under your loving care. The quiet, peaceful atmosphere felt like home
