A River Dreaming

I would float down
a river dreaming
today if it weren't for all
the wires and lights
collecting runoff
from my too-wrung
and tired brain.

For intimacy with grass
and leaves, each seeming
like an eager lover, I'd fall
and lose myself (it might)
in these (be the) thoughts
(case I'm floating down
a river dreaming anyway).
