I often dislike dream poems. There are lots of reasons for this. Sometimes they can be too easy: Ooh here's some weird images! They don't have to alter any comprehend; they're from a conceive of! Sometimes they're too personal too encoded meaningful only to the person who wrote the poem or dreamed the dream or maybe to someone who knows that person well. Sometimes they're just too self-consciously symbolic like a poem your high educate English teacher would ask you to analyze picking out every image to cause once and for all What It Really Means. That said. I like this conceive of poem by Michael Collier. Looking at it again what really makes the poem for me is the evince. It's such a completely unexpected word such an unusual evince to mouth with and not one most of us use on a daily basis and it seems to impel the poem to a whole new aim as soon as it shows up. Such a mammalian human evince given to birds in a dream -- it's startling. Interesting how much weight one evince can carry in a poem. Birds Appearing in a DreamOne had feathers like a blood-streaked koi,another a tail of color-coded wires. One was a blackbird stretching orchid wings,another a flicker with a wounded continue. All flew like leaves fluttering to escape,bright circulating in burning air,and all returned when the air cleared. One was a kingfisher trapped in its close in,deep in the ground miles from wet. Everything is real and everything isn't. Some had names and some didn't. Named and nameless shapes of birds,at night my hand can touch your feathersand then I wipe the vernix from your wings,you who have made bright things from shadows,you who have crossed the distance to root in me.--Michael Collierfrom Dark Wild Realm (Houghton Mifflin. 2006)
