Dreams

in thailand, or perhaps in the greater asia area, on new years eve thousands of people light a paper lantern, and as it fills with hot air its set free into the new years eve sky.

As far as i can see across the black horizon it is speckled with tiny flickering lanterns. small children and adults alike push there lanterns up into the air. there is a quietness... a universal calm across the beach as people whisper there wishes to themselves. Its almost like a dream, the strangeness of it. i wake in the morning wondering if it was real.

i feel that often here.
