Dreams

He’s moving on
the dream seller
packing up his wares
taking down his stall

stacking the hopes and wishes
rolling up adventures
corralling the monsters
hitching the unicorns

elf and fairy remainders
sold in knockdown clusters
free dragon with every damsel
nightmares all sold out

flying dreams are tethered
riches cashed and banked
old friends folded away
and mothballed to be safe

and with his last goodbye
he’s waiting at the door
to claim the morning loaned
you won’t be needing now.
