Dreams are not
a simple escape
They are a chance
to rewrite history
Misguided hope
for change
Flashes of genius
forgotten in consciousness
Dreams are not
a simple escape
They are momentary acts
of courage

© Olivia E., Alto, MI

The author's comments:
I believe that daring to dream, in the midst of the oppression and misery found in today's society is an act of true courage. It's delightfully inspiring.
