Searching for sleep
Then it finds us
and pulls us in
gradually
We are not reluctant to dive in
Now joining the waves
Streams of our vital energy
Our thoughts channel into a river
Then deep into the ocean
Dropping the ties to awareness of the concrete world
An anchor sinkng fast
Meaning is intense
with different logic in comparison to
waking hours
Events are absurdly connected
But with symbolically suggestive layers
That are intelligent and purposeful
when we look back later
and are processing reflections of dreams
or contemplating archetypes that present themselves meaningfully in daily life
