Dreams
Just some poetry tapping into Kenneth Koch's "wishes, lies, and dreams" exerciseDreams
I want to win
the Nobel Peace Prize,
barnstorm in towns without Borders,
end world
hunger while swimming
the English Channel,
and eat poached
eggs on the shore in Calais,
become president
of an unpronounceable
island
republic,
grow my own
bananas,
sail around the world in a Sun-
fish, flashing candy
cane stripes under ribbons
of ocean,
discover home.
