The Snake Charmer, Henri Rousseau, 1907
Magpie #83 The Act of Dreaming
Underneath
heady vegetation
to
Linger
the dark jungle
to
Shake
her snake-filled tree
to
Lush
her verdant green earth
to
Undulate
these zoomorphic creatures
to
Coax
Our ancient goddess
to
Fuse
Our ancestral rhythms
to
Active
These desires dormant
to
Awake
Our conscious dreams
to
Sleep
Our unconscious life
