Firing off Dreams of Desires
A Spark of Wonder in the Hearts of Few
Draw me pictures of a thousand words give me the gift of freedom and never tell me I am asleep
Give me a neatly drawn life full of sparks but never a fire, the missing thing out of the ordinary is a light within
Will you teach me how to draw, so for the rest of my time here I can inspire the few
With leaps of obstacles only to teach me the true depth of love I desire over the dreams I once had of becoming a fire
I didn't ask to exist, within this experience a chance of bliss
Hold me back so I don't lose my head
Only thing left here is a feeling and thought that's gripping at the toes of my feet reminding me I'm still human

Whose job is to produce crops for us,He is our farmer brother, For which we can eat rice, He is our farmer brother. In the hot summer sun, and, The monsoon rains, Cultivation that does, He is our farmer brother. morning and evening work, In that sweaty rice, that doesn't stop That is our farmer brother.

B. A. Durham’s False Memories blends dream and reality in a seamless mix. As his father, afflicted by Alzheimer’s, fades away, the narrator is haunted by a dream that may be a memory, returning to him insistently. The piece is full of wonderful detail (the father touching his lip where once there was a mustache, “but now he is clean-shaven—he has been for years” — and moving in revealing the complexities of a family’s life. A worthy winner which shows the power of dreams to influence us.
