A surreal Florentinae with flamenco-style ukulele. A spider answers the poet’s questions with riddles of longing, sleep and dream logic.
Lyrics: When asked about my dream recall/ A spider crawled across my desk/ I questioned it in black and white/ And to my heart’s distress/ The spider answered me in colored hues/ and listed this list instead:/
A dream inside a streamyard,/ Bending like a willow/ A tomcat dreams in red/ upon a royal pillow/
And the green freedom of a cockatiel/ Pretending yet to be/ an eagle spread upon a bed/ of quilted reverie/
Do ant queens scream when boiling water defeats their colony?/ Do oranges dream in color?/ Do salmon doubt their epic swim beyond the rushing stream?/ And why is it you’re a character in my every dream?/
I whispered to the talking spider,/ ”Why is it I can never remember?”/ This is what the spider said,/ “Maybe, my dear, you write the dream instead.”/
