everyone and everything of Earth
past present and future
was attached to the end of its own string
a passerby
deep in the universe
was free to pull them
but could only pull
on so many strings
at any one time
had to pull
in little clusters
for different parts of the world
North America
was given its winter
well out of season
as the invisible hands
began to drift
through the strings
and out the fragile ends
as the hands glazed
across the north Atlantic
like skimming blades
of tall grass
blanketing Greenland and Iceland
and promising
to bring winter down
to Copenhagen soon
I think I know where I need to be
actual dream
