over the years I've had this recurring dream... the first time that I recorded it it became section 8 of The City (1974).
recently the "old man" (I am 70) morphs into Stone Girl (she is ... young). Here is that section 8 just as it was originally composed:
8
it is the quietness
within
that makes the move
ment
of animals
going
almost
unnoticed
.an old man
was with me
he came upon
me
suddenly
his voice was
low
& rough & in
his talk
sd nothing
important
as the moon
came
animals came
we slept with
no fire
in the morning
when i awoke
he had already
gone
.i do not know
his name

last night was like every other night I
again dreamed that I was (the) Full Moon
pretending to be (a) Ripe Banana
&
when that Dumb Rock turned into "Her"
I ...erupted !
wrote a poem:
full moon
I think I'm in love
with a rock
and the this Stone Girl became my "me"

Last night I had no dreams
and woke up with no worries
The night before last I dreamed about "her"
and that morning when I awoke I had many worries
There must be a lesson in this that is as I re:call

I was tied naked to a stake
in a gawd-for-saken land
way out "there"
the sun was blazing hot
and circling me a- hooten and a-hoolerin'
was a band of (also) naked Indian women-girls

I am falling head first down down down a tube..
I can see a light wayyyyyy down there...
then suddenly POW!
I egress from the dark-dank tube
into the light and just drift endlessly away
