letra de night dream (live) - kurt elling
lonely the roses of avondaire /
sing as though somebody still may care
they live only for the dream of living /
so come follow where /
they will take you there
i once was apprenticed /
to a man who was living
in the eye if the hurricane /
to know despair
he knew all the dreams by heart /
just like sailing in a boat of crystal silence /
seeing visions /
of the world / of life within a life
in a turning /
like a burning /
came turning /
out of everything stirring /
and what had begun before
but all wrapped up /
in one great godly becoming –
tumbling /
and fumbling /
and stumbling
into bumbling /
and rumbling along –
whirling it /
and swirling it /
and twirling it /
and hurling it /
and overturning it /
and burning it again
i shared a whirling dervish out on the side of a hill called metaph0r- vivace
swinging en route to a nascent solar /
with the scissored visored blizzard
wizard /
gizzarding planets and secrets within /
like an avatar
while meanwhile /
in turnstyling /
and spinning over him
spells bespeaking kingdoms in the dark
calling me to yield /
knighting me in a field /
covered with armies
and with princes. all were signing /
cannons shining /
pennants flying
and when he spoke to me he sang /
and his words really rang –
this child of the knowledge of the beauty of the night –
he sang to me of masters p-ssing on /
of father after father after father
climbing up into the lotus bloom /
upon the tortoise’s back
and of grandfathers /
who danced through their living a longer time ago
he showed me a palace in time /
in which all the talismans
from all the zeuses /
swing upon a pendulum of secrets
in a circle that remembers /
and when asked a question will surrender
every secret key to every hero’s message /
given to every heart in time
but only known to but a few /or so it seems
when i asked of them /
what shall i do /
to see the god?
they only said /
the goldenrod /
which grows inside of
every secret dream you dream /
while waiting for the god –
it-s a symbol from the man in the fire
ling you the thing you desire
is a garment that covers the riddle of everything secretly wished for
and of the world of which you are an inheritor
suddenly the chamber was flooded with light /
hurling me skyward like a meteorite/
when i fell to earth /
i saw everything in a blur
i saw that time was accelerating in a curve
and the palace in which i had stood /
it was flowing, like lava, on acres of
woodland
like a pompei-an mountain volcano /
making archipelago
and destroying the planet / at fortissimo
bulldozing everything down /
to make room for what
was a byzantine /
a labarynthine /
knotty mess of
manifolding p-ssageways /
a tangle of confusion /
where the walls made /
an asylum of baroque
like a joke / words were spoken
to provoke me / and to toss me
nude and empty / to the sea
but i would have none of it
i simply turned my back and walked out/
of the dreamscape/
into landscape /
like a bedroom / where i heard that
lonely the roses of solitaire /
sing as though somebody still may care
they live only for the dream of living /
so come follow where they will take
you there
stay awake – no mistake – dance the dream awake – and awake.”
