DREAM IN THREE PARTS
1.
E-motion.
Silky light
fleeing.
Eternal
Frenzy of daily
Passing.
She’s scared
to jump
from anxiety’s height.
She’s crying
climbing down
a high wall.
I want to save
both of them.
Who am I?
A hero
from a different
time?
They both jumped
without my
catch-in-midair.
They are both
heroes.
2.
Beach.
Sharks returned---
grounded---to where
their ancestors were saved.
Gentle mammals
after all.
Cold skin
against scolding sand.
3.
I had to jump
into a boiling caldron
against which
a sexy bikini walking
in sea-blue breeze.
The text is burning,
changing.
My hands wet
from thinking.
Sinking.
How deep
do I have to dive
in order to meet you
face to face?

梦的三部曲
1。
情绪(波动)。
光，如丝
飞逝。
日间的瞬息
永恒的喧哗。
她不敢
从令人焦虑的高度
往下跳。
她哭着
沿着高墙
往下爬
我欲挽救
她们。
而我又是谁？
来自不同年代的
英雄？
她们一同跳下来
我没有半空
接住。
她们都是
英雄。
2。
海滩。
沙鱼归来 - - -
着陆 - - - 于
祖先获救之地。
毕竟(也是)
柔顺的生灵。
冰冷的肌肤
靠着利齿的沙砾
3。
我不得不
跳入翻滚的水锅
一个骚娆的女孩
身着比基尼
漫步在海蓝的微风里
背景在燃烧，
变换。
我的手因思虑重重
而湿透。
缓缓
下
沉
。
。
。
我需要潜入
多深
才可以与你
相遇？

"this makes the "dream" more interesting....sometimes, the "dreamer" cannot "see" :)"
I think that is the difference between the "dream" and the real world… :)

wish i could type Chinese on this pc ...
yes, zf, i think i understand your ideas....
this makes the "dream" more interesting....sometimes, the "dreamer" cannot "see" :)
知凡 发表评论于
Thank you, zz, I think you know what I am talking about...
following your dreams...
:))

zf,
what i say "a flow of images," that is nature....something "i" cannot control, predict, manipulate, etc....
the meaning of "decision-making" is a relative one, i.e., when one is not "making a decision," one IS making a decision, right? :)
when you follow your intuition while making decisions, that should definitely help....in the worldly sense, we say someone is "smart," that means he/she is not only using the "head," but also his/her "heart"...
thank you for reminding me "Crash" :)
i need to see it!!!
知凡 发表评论于
I am not crashing…
There are many types of decision-making process.
For me, the good decisions I have made are from my intuition or nature not from my mind.
Everyone is different…… but that does't mean my decision is better than others'
We need to free our mind to think the meaning of“making choices” …
Maybe I am talking another word of “choosing”as I was talking about the concept of“自作多情”long time ago……
I didn’t find “choosing” in this poem, just nature, all are nature……
I don't mind if no one know what I am talking about....
:)))))))
影云 发表评论于
true, z.z. you know what i am talking about ;)
LTG 发表评论于
haha, zf,
don't "crash"!!!
:)
if and only if, this dream reflects "making choices," then, it is very interesting!!! i didn't realize that until now, after writing it....thanks to y.y.'s interpretation....
in real life, we make decisions within certain limits, including those "big patatoes" [people with power]....
we make "decisions," but that does not necessarily mean the "outcome" is what we desire---then, "desire" is another slipery word :)
everyday, upon opening our eyes, we start the "decision-making" process....
知凡 发表评论于
the best lives are those we invent, not choose…..
well, we have to choose sometimes, but I really don’t like to choose….
The life (or a journey) you chosen will “crash” eventually
That’s my view about the word “crash” chosen for that film:
"Crash": You think you know who you are. You have no idea.
LTG 发表评论于
hi guys,
i think y.y. is refering to the [un]concious decision-making....even in dreams, we seem to face "choices"...
but in "my dream," i was not pressed by "choices," but a flow of images...
who knows!
what you both said make sense too...
the robert frost poem is indeed about making conscious choices in life...
do we all have to do that??
sure!

Life is a journey full of choices. Even Robert Frost wrote that road not taken. We choose to become and be what we are.

i see :))
dreams are interesting....
they show, not "tell"....
知凡 发表评论于
A cute dream!!!!!!
Just flow with wind:))))
I didn't find "choosing" in this poem. where?, where? let me know:)
Only Sophie had to choose, because she was forced to choose… (“Sophie’s choice”)
Are you forced to choose?? That’s too bad...
No matter how deep you dive, you will meet her face to face, if It is the one you really want to meet…(not chosen)… I think….

i mean, interpretation based on my first reading :)
welcome:)

"Initial interpretation of dreams by y. y. " ???
:)
like your interpretation!!
thanx!!!
影云 发表评论于
Interesting dreams!!!
All of them are threaded by “choosing”
Initial interpretation of dreams by y. y. :
First one, no matter if you make a choice or not, what happens will happen.
Second one, choose to return - - - it has “仁” in it
Third one, what ever you choose is not bad as you thought . . .
:)
