To dream is to allow oneself to dream, an affordance of space to be grasped.
finding other ways to make sense when this world doesn’t make sense
(swelling with sense to unmake).
To dream a plant is to be dreamt by the plant.
This is our meeting place, riding the meridian
through an archway of humility
where letting go is communion,
where language is a moving form,
the language of flowers writes moments on my eyes.
In between worlds,
The plants help us to dream, the plants help us to remember
a re-remembering the rolling waves folding back into themselves,
dreaming new memories within each fold.
~~~
Instructions for plant dreaming:
Preliminary conditions include: to be still, still to be open, open to be able to sense, sense to breathe with nonthinking, nonthinking to unpredict the future, unpredict the future to break open the horizon line.
Lie underneath a plant in the space between here and there (the space between here and there is one of dreaming).
