Don’t bother a bit, you are only a dream you are having, And if when you wake your symptoms are not relieved, That is only because you harbor a morbid craving For belief in the old delusion in which you have always believed. There once was a time when you thought you would understand Many things, many things, including yourself, and learn Greek, But light changes old landscape, and your own hand Makes signs unseen in the dark, and lips move but do not speak, For given that vulture and vector which is the stroke Of the clock, absolute, on the bias of midnight, memory Is nothing, is nothing, not even the memory of smoke Dispersed on windless ease in the great fuddled head of the sky. And all recollections are false, and all you suffer Is only the punishment thought appropriate for guilt You cuddle and kiss, and wish you had the crime for, For the bitterest tears are those shed for milk—or blood—not spilt. There is only one way, then, to make things hang together, Which is to accept the logic of dream, and avoid Night air, politics, French sauces, autumn weather, And the thought that, on your awaking, identity may be destroyed. —Robert Penn Warren
