I don't know why it took
forever but it wasn't until
today that a dream was
finally realized--to row
in a rowboat upon Lake
Union. It was relatively
new dream, humble in
aspect, but still it took
inordinately long to fulfill.
And now what? What do
you call a memory of a dream?
Is it the same as a plain old
memory? Or is it more like a movie
you've heard about but never seen?
Nothing long and purposeful for me.
Kayaks are too intent;
canoes tippy.
Besides, in those cases you're paddling,
not rowing. Which is fine. For them.
Gimme a dinghy, six-pack,
and two
friends and we'll show this lake
a good time. Police
be damned.
