The Dream of Reality   (written 2/00)  - Chorus written by Wendell Berry

As we walked to the glass of night

I saw the door to the sky’s eye

A creation of my mind

The path to the door where my thoughts hide

You were faceless

But my best friend

The only one I really know

And I listen to the messages you send

Chorus:

To go in the dark with a light

Is to know the light

To know the dark, go dark

Go without sight

And find that the dark too, blooms and sings

And is travelled by dark feet and dark wings

My animal my anima my soul

On the evolution of time

Dive deep within me

And surface it into conscious mind

Then we saw

A wise man so kind

He was a guru

And he bowed and welcomed us into his mind

I was scared I was alone

Within the forest so deep

I knew what I had to do, I knew what it was

There was a message here that I was meant to keep

Chorus

My animal my animus my soul

On the tree of history

Come here

Awake from the dream of reality
