Black Room Dreams
As a child in Head Start,
Dreaming could be considered an art.
I dreamed of The Bluest Angel, watching over me,
I dreamed I'd float up and down the hall, free.
There is no gravity in some dreams, swimming in air.
There was a dream that came now and then,
A strange yet haunting old friend.
My room, all painted black,
Windows closed unto the dark.
In the closet, where the toys lived.
A plastic Batmobile,
With a plastic steering wheel,
Orange bat upon the hood,
The only color where I stood.
A bit of color in the dark.

I had the most vivid dreams as a child, and this one
was repeated several times. The one where I was floating
up and down the halls came often, as I floated, I watched
the neighbors coming and going through the halls.
The Bluest Angel was one of my very favorite dreams.
Inspiration for another poem.
