Real dream unreal

a poem by Amikar Anand

Drink to the spirit of the loving sadness
And barter your sanity for the ignorance of madness
May the sun never set and the shadows never fly
May her face shine in the silver of the moon so high
May you see a million stars shimmer across the sky
And conquer a hundred mountains and swim a thousand seas
For your world is but a dream in stone and the writing that is
Life is etched on the epitaph of death
